was playing a game tonight and all of a sudden the left flipper just died. opened up the machine and the flipper coil was extremely hot and the slug did not travel very well seems the coil got so hot it melted the sleeve. The EOS switch either not opening in time or arcing caused the problem. Took the coil out and could not get the sleeve out ....Had to actually put it on the drill press to get it out. Checked the coil out and it tested the same for ohms as the one still in the machine for both coils. Put a new sleeve in it and adjusted the EOS switch and had it working again. I guess you could say I'm glad the sleeve melted to alert me of the problem before the coil burned up. Question is ....is there something you can put on the outside of the coil sleeve to keep it from fusing to the inside of the coil ? If I had a brass sleeve it probably would have fried the coil
