    Quoted from dothedoo:

    Here's a fix I made:
    Centaur: Kick to Playfield coil locks on and melts the coil. You can't see the mech and don't know it's happening until you see smoke roll up from under the plunger. Replace the uncommon coil with a flipper coil and add an EOS switch (it is a modified flipper mech after all). No side effects, coil will not melt if it locks on again, easily undone back to original.

    That sounds like a good fix and I would do it myself. That said, do it to a game and then if it gets sold, fully expect a new thread here with photos and someone whining ; Whaaa, whaaa, whaaa, Hack of the week! what were they thinking?!?! Why would someone do this? Where can I get the parts to remove this hack and make it original??
