The ship won't go down(sink) all the way. After looking at it, it appears it is getting caught on the screw head(you can see in the pic where it has been hitting on the right side of ship) that hold the bracket on the clutch plate.If you look at the picture, the problem area seems to be where the ship slides onto the metal bracket. If I sink the ship and hold it towards the back of the play field it clears and goes all the way down and if not it gets caught.
I thought maybe I could replace the metal bushing that the bracket slides into, but this loose tolerance might be by design and the bushing doesn't look worn? I could also bend the bracket just a bit. Any thoughts on a fix?
