    100 % electro-mechanical function,that is, discounting cosmetics? Many helpful Posts from people here got me to start reading schematics for fun, just to see if I could.
    The first machine I never considered schematics and just plowed in (after reading Clays guide), never soldered much before either.
    Did 3 machines so far and the first two still play flawlessly. Just couldn't figure out some glitches on Out of Sight no matter how much research/testing.
    Question, how many of you restored an EM without consulting schematics? Do you still prefer this method? Or do you require them?

    "Intuit" thats a good way of putting it. Thanks.

    Has the Philosophy "Do only what is necessary to get the game to function" changed any? Like do most people now remove boards and clean all units/ switches?
