Looking for some help. Have a 1970 Williams 3 jokers. Working 100% but flippers and pops are weak. Checked the sleeves and they're clean. Not gummed up. Is hi tapping it a smart way to go.

Can it hurt to do it?

I tried it tonight. Helped with the flippers. Still not happy with the pops. Gonna try to tune em up too. Thanks for the advice everyone. Feel free to keep the discussion open as it seems there's mixed feelings about this.

So... I cleaned two of them up and replaced the sleeves and they seem to work better. Went to replace the other 3 and I'm not sure if the pin has mushroomed or what but I couldn't get the pin out of the coil... Moved about half way and I can't move it no matter how hard I pull. Gave up, pushed em back together and went back to playing. Kinda bitched up one of the aluminum sleeves trying to get it out so the reality is, I NEED to get them apart some how. Any suggestions.
