Quoted from JMP:It's also my favourite System 80B out of the seven I own
Nice collection, I'm a system 80 junkie as well, for me the themes and sounds/music, simple fun gameplay encapsulate the essence of great pinball.

Quoted from seshpilot:Also, I find it VERY difficult to make the left ramp as well. I have to have a lot of velocity going into the shot to make it. Is this normal? I didn't think my flippers needed rebuilt (I changed the sleeves but noting else), but am starting to wonder.
Same for me, when the ball comes down the outlane nice and fast I can make the ramp or sometimes with the right bounce, mine has the 20095 coils but I can see that the flipper mechs need some love, I bought a rebuild kit and once its done I'll post if it made a difference, the lights are pretty easy, 3 led blue strips from comet with the clips and putting in a couple spotlights at the slings really lights up the game. 
Quoted from MarAlb:We had the same problems at our game, even after rebuilding the flipper mech's. Looking at the Original flyer (listed at IPDB.ORG), we noticed the flipperbats are adjusted a little bit downwards. Adjusting the flipperbats like this was the solution for our game; it made making the ramp shot more easy.
Can u post a pic of ur flippers? Thanks

Quoted from seshpilot:So I adjusted my flippers to point down a bit. Definitely helped make the shot a bit, but I'd still love to see what replacing the flipper button switches do as well. It's still tough to make!
That worked for me as well but it almost seems like the flippers gets weaker as I play, I noticed this even when I had the flippers at proper placement, start a game and I would make the ramp a couple times then it would become impossible again, now in my fumbling I touched the flipper spring to the flippers switch and fried something, getting "tilt switched closed" on the display and I can't even get into the diagnostics? Might be time for a new board, damn it. 
Quoted from MarAlb:If you shorted the solenoid voltage to the switchmatrix circuitry there will be a few TTL gates blown and if you have bad luck also the U4 RIOT. Happens often when messing around with the flippermechs while the game is powered on - lanechange switch and EOS are stacked.......
will that be an expensive fix or am I better off getting a new board?
