Hi!
I very spontaneously got hold of a Doodle Bug, or rather, I have bought one and will have it delivered next week.
One thing I was told was that the manual plunger assembly needed to be repaired, or buy a new one.

Does anyone know where to buy a complete manual plunger assemly for this Williams EM from 1971?

Cheers!
Morten

Quoted from slochar:

If it's just the plunger being mushroomed, everyone that sells common pinball parts sells it. If you need the escutcheon, pinball resource or possibly marcospec.
Plunger tip being mushroomed=incredibly common problem (because people run the game with the plunger rubber removed or damaged). You might have to hack saw the end out.

I dont know the exact details yet as Ill inspect it next week, but the seller said the the plunger had to be repaired, so thought Id be effective and just buy the whole "mech/assy" if its available, but I see that maybe it must be bought in parts. So I guess Ill just wait til next week

PBR says the nylon housing is not available, but I can use a metal housing. So will probably just do that
Thanks for many responses appreciate it!

When I get to fire the bug up I will probable be even more thankful for answers to troubleshooting answers that may or will arise
