Just got my TAF from the warehouse find. It's been sitting for a few years. Any suggestions on cleaning the playfield other than elbow grease?

Can someone send me a top side pic of the thing out hole? I am missing the coil, bracket and plunger but I don't know if there is a kicker arm. I don't see it in the manual, so is the plunger directly impacting the ball? Sounds strange.

It's the "knocked out" part I'm trying to figure out. The book calls it the "thing eject hole". The hand works fine.

Thanks, Jesse. That was perfect. I had already ordered the parts for the assembly, just neede to know the plunger was what actually contacted with the ball to get it out of the hole. Both pics showed that.

A little help fellow TAF owners. When I purchased my TAF it was missing the thing eject solenoid and bracket. I ordered the bracket from Australia (thanks previous blog) and the solenoid from Marco. The book calls for an AE-30-2000 and the Marco coil received had the same part number on the tag, however, after installation the coil isn't strong enough to get the ball out of the hole. It's making contact and moving it. I have tried changing the angle a bit with spacers to get the shaft more lined up with the bottom of the ball but no luck. Any ideas? Could someone also send a picture of the outhole and shaft with a ball sitting in so I can see where exactly it's supposed to hit?

Coil Sleeve and spring installed. Yes, located by the thing box. Here are some pics.
