Quoted from parsonsaj:

Any suggestions as to how to do that? I assume there is a way to drill it out....

If you work on pinball machines that are not NIB, I would use a left hand drill bit over an easy out. It is a drillbit that is threaded backwards so as you drill, if it bites it will unscrew the screw. I got it to remove an easy out that I broke off in a car block and use it all the time on rusted pinball machine screws that break off.

use about 1/2 and then 3/4 of the size of the screw and see if it easily solves your problem. I got my set at HF very cheap (it is a NEIKO 13 piece left-hand drilll bit set) #10038A

Quoted from chuckwurt:

HOWEVER:

If you have three lights lit on the piston shot and end a combo there you should get three blown pistons, but there is a bug where you do not. You always get just 1 blown piston no matter how many lights are lit / flashing. I asked Lyman about it and he said, “I thought I fixed that. I will look into that bug again.”

I thought V1.7 (which I haven't installed) fixed this. Someone should check

From readme - - Fuel lane now awards 1 blown piston for each lit light, instead of
1 blown piston for all three lit lights.

Quoted from KnockerPTSD:

've had my MET pro bnib from stern for 3mo now. My left flipper just started acting up today. It retracts really slow now like an air cylinder letting air out. Is the coil no good or is there and easier fix I should know about

Everyone has given the probable answer but I just want to add in the years I have had games or serviced them in arcades, the coil is not bad unless it blows a fuse (diode usually) or you can't remove the coil sleeve. It is usually the coil sleeve or plunger or the pivot has been tightened without a gap. Oh or someone added oil. But on NIB that is not the problem.

Quoted from monte_:

I have had a metallica nib premium for 2 weeks. Noticed that i hear humming noise when holding the left and right flippers. It is slight hum when i hold the right flipper up but much louder with left flipper held up. Normal or some way to lessen the hum? Thanks for any input.

People may so no biggie but the game usually doesn't flip consistently once you get that. My MET has 2000+ games and no buzz yet. Once my ACDC started that the edge shots (ACDC bank, orbits, ROCK bank) went to crap. If it is new, ask STERN to fix it, I find they have been great. If not, it is usually bending the stop or replacing. Don't put up with it.

Quoted from Dee-Bow:

BTW, they were all great suggestions.. but i think you picked the best possible choice. I now read the full name of the thread ever time! It's a perfect theme for this pin. It's an awesome call-out in the game annnd it's also a great album. \m/

Remember when there was talk about RTLLE like MOPLE? I was always hoping for a vault that had this like the SM vault. But no way now with all the games coming out and the switch to spike.
