The 'search time' on my 'Showtime' gets longer as I keep playing it.
It runs for about 3-5 sec. at first , then the time gets longer to complete the search cycle
as my playing time goes on. After about 15min. playing time , the SEARCH cycle takes about
20sec.
Is this a mechanical adjustment on the Timer cam, or is the problem somewhere else?

**** do you mean the process when you put in a coin and it searches for an odds increase or etc? **** YES
When I hit the RED button to get better ODDs/Features.
*** I never put coins in any more; I always have Many Credits available; one way or the other...

I just put some neatsfoot oil on the clutches; I didn't see any difference in the 15mim. period, but maybe
it needs more time to be effective.
I will look at it tomorrow again.
Thanks ..... I will save your post.

I placed some neatsfoot oil on all the timer cam clutches. The 3rd one looked like it had the most wear.
I didn't see any issue with the drag arms or pins, but I put a touch of oil on them anyway.
I just played the Pin for about 45min............. no delay times were noticed.
Therefore I think the issue was the #3 clutch.......
I will re-check it tomorrow!
Thanks 'bingopodcast'
