Fired up ...Hi Lo Ace and the score motor made a screeching noise while it was resetting . Score reels moving slower than shit . Cleaned all the relays / switches but no difference . So I started to play the game and score reels moved real slow and every time it made a point or whatever on the targets that thing started screeching again so I’m thinking the motor is shot or the gears inside are all dried up or something I don’t know what to do
