My PM plunger doesn't slide as freely as I like. I was going to replace the plunger sleeve, but couldn't remove whatever's in the housing: seems like a brass sleeve but flanged on both sides. What's up with that? Are these removable? I tried, but they seem pretty permanent.

"PM" = Pinball Magic, also linked the game. I guess these Capcom ones are permanent brass.

Already cleaned the plunger thoroughly, seems good. I guess I'll remove the housing and find a way to clean the sleeve.

Or maybe it's the plunger, I'll try swapping with another game see if it changes.

Anyone know the proper shooter springs for PM? Inner and outer? Those seem pretty worn too.

I took the housing off as well as the one from my Breakshot and mixed and matched. I cleaned them all thoroughly again and put the best combination on PM. Seemed a little metallic, so I did add a tiny drop of oil. That really made a difference. I put the strongest spring I had on as well, but probably a bit violent now. Need to experiment some more with the right spring and habittrail angle that will allow a full loop shot.
