OP
Quoted from lowepg:
We have a CBW in a vacation rental in the NC mountains.
It’s the first non-modern Non-Williams/stern pin I’ve owned.
Guest reported a weak right flipper (a ball striking it will push it down, not enough power when flipping with etc).
My question is - how hard is this repair/rebuild? I’ve never worked on this machine and since it’s hundreds of miles remote from me- I might have to have my property rental maintenance guy repair it?

System 3 flipper rebuilds aren't really "harder" than bally/williams, they are just different and therefore may take more time. Parts are expensive though
