Quoted from Blackbeard:Guys, thinking of selling my diner. Thoughts on price...
All new ramps, including cup, shopping with new rubbers and leds. New star posts. Inserts levels. Above average playfield and cab. New flipper mechs.
I have no pics on me, but what are these things going for these days?
Sounds nice. Based on description $3200 sounds reasonable to me.
Quoted from Wmsfan-GAP:Can you cut a slot into the broken part with a Dremel tool and then use a screwdriver to break free?
I did this with the diverter crank arm on my Whirlwind. Hex screw was completely stripped out and I couldn't drill it out either. Just used the Dremel and cut a slot until it broke free. Replaced the crank with a new one.
There may have been a better way, but this worked for me.
Quoted from zhu808:Cut a slot? I can't quite picture what you mean. Maybe cut the head off the screw and unscrew it from the nut side?
I re-read your original post, and I think we're talking about two different parts. Here is an image of the diverter crank that had the stripped out screw. This piece holds the diverter in place and allows the coil to move the diverter. I had to cut a slot in the crank to allow the diverter to come free.
Quoted from zhu808:Yep. I'm talking about the little Philips head screws that hold the "plate" onto the diverter shaft. I'll probably have to cut them off with a Dremel.

Try taking the diverter crank off from the bottom of the diverter shaft. It should then allow you to pull the entire diverter out without having to take those screws out.
