If I manually put a ball into the Orb kicker, the ball will kick out when the Orb feature is started. Balls will not feed into the Orb kicker on their own though. Any tips?

Check your solenoid expander board. Is the relay clicking? Has the lamp gone?

When I had mine a few years ago I raised the back legs up as high as they would go to increase the speed of the game. I then found that the balls would not load correctly. I lowered it back down and all was fine.

I saw your ad on CL. Don't give up on this game so easy unless you found a better one. Looks like you did better than mine in the cosmetic and price area. I am assuming the seller didn't tell you about the reverb board being missing and the bad display? Good luck with your game, it looks to me like it's a worthy restoration candidate.

Thanks for the support Rusty. The guy misrepresented the playfield. It was likely the same as yours but has been touched up. The clear was brushed on and looks pretty bad. In poor lighting, it's hard to see the touchup work so maybe I shouldn't complain. A DMD I've been looking for is coming up for sale by a friend and I will need cash to make it happen. I'm going to post a FS ad here on Pinside later this morning.
