Quoted from tanstkd:

Looks like I have a different 8 ball to most.

Looks like you've got a Magic Eight conversion minus the backglass:

Quoted from tanstkd:

Would be interested to know if the spinner on the right was an add-on.

The playfield picture on IPDB shows the switch linkage hole for the right side spinner so yes it looks like that right spinner is part of this conversion.

From what I've heard most of these Geiger conversion kits for Bally games actually used Gottlieb playfield mechanisms.

Quoted from punkin:

When running the solenoid test the coils do not fire inj the correct order.
One of the chimes fires twice and one not at all. one of the slings fires twice etc.

You've most likely got a bad connection on one of the solenoid select signals from the MPU board to the solenoid driver board.
If you go into more detail as to exactly which coils activate correctly, incorrectly or not at all I can pinpoint the signal connection - ultimately you'll need to reterminate a pin at a connector.
