Quoted from WizWiggy:

Looking for help with my auto plunger issue (manual plunger working fine). I would say around 1 in 6 auto plunges are getting either slightly airborne where it "rattles" coming out which causes a limp plunge, or much more to the point of hitting the right ramp and deflecting back to the auto plunger. I replaced the coil a month ago with the stronger one (power set to 200 in settings, multiple power settings tried as well) and it was working great until very recently. The metal prongs on the auto plunger have been adjusted and line up great with the ball. When the ball stays grounded in the shooter lane, it's a beautiful plunge!
Also, my buddy has a BM66 having the same "airborne" issue.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I have the stronger coil set at 220, but I also adjusted the shooter lane guide (angled it downward a bit and added a flat washer and a star lock washer to hold the screw in place better) and my auto plunge is working about 95% now. When it does miss it seems to get a slightly weak launch and hits the corner below the left loop (above the extra ball target). Manual plunge is 100% provided I do a full pull.
