Good morning folks. I have a beautiful bone busters (3/4) of my collection is sys 1 and 80.
I had back surgery where they fused 3 of my L vertebrae and it causes me days of pain to work on my games now. I am wondering if there is someone in west michigan that can do a tech visit here. I have a LCA that needs a little flipper work, my car hop needs a little work and I have a beautifuly restored Monte carlo, (nicer than new) and all of the sudden the drop targets wont reset.
On the Bone busters, it got moved from a pals where it worked beautifully for a year, and when I set it up here and turned it on all pf lights are locked on. So I quickly shut it down.
so I need someone pretty familiar with these gottliebs to help me out. I will be happy to pay your rate, as I am down to 2 games that work!!!
I am in galesburg MI which is a hooterville type town right off the 94. we even have our own exit!!!
Please drop me a line if you can help or if you know someone I should contact, please send me the info.
I really appreciate the help. I make my living on pinball, but most folks would be surprised how little i know about the electronics. since it causes me so much pain, I just stopped working on them about 10 years ago, which means I dont learn new stuff any more, and have forgotten every thing I knew at one time.
It would be great to find someone. Rob anthony came out a couple years back and he claims not to know anything about gottliebs and he fixed everything.
I had to sell most of my games for roofs for the house and studios but I still have a bunch of gottleibs that I love.
Title fight which took me 8 years to find one
Hot shots. home use only never had the time to set up because it needs work and clean

Bone busters
Black hole. Just bought it and havent set it up yet. It needs to be shopped and I like clean games. They play so much better.
star race. Bought it and had it shipped. the seller hadnt finished putting the pf back together form a shop job. I am gld because he used the wrong size star posts and raised the rubbers
2 amazing spiderman.
I have found that the best way for me to get a game shopped and fixed is to let someone have it for 9 months to a year. That way they can fix and shop it and play it for a year or till they tire of it. In the past this has worked out great. My bud Ryan did the bone busters and its gorgeous. I used to live in that area of chicago so I enjoy playing.
