Quoted from AdjustFailure:

I re-connected the capacitors and cleaned and adjusted the switches and now it is all good

So, you’re saying you had an adjust-ment failure?

Good job fixing those pop bumpers!

Quoted from AdjustFailure:

I did notice that the previous owner had snipped the capacitors connected to the top two bumpers, and one bumper below that does not have a capacitor. Should I re-attach / re-install those capacitors?

Yes, replace the caps as LTG suggests. This is what you need for the missing cap:

At fifteen cents each, I would go ahead and replace the two old ones and order a few extra to have on hand. Order 10 or more and they are only twelve cents each.

I have fixed switch problems on early Bally SS pins by replacing this capacitor.
