I owned an IM Pro, and both flippers were weaker than they should be. I had to loosen and retighten the flipper bat into the mech, using the proper gap. From the factory, the flipper bat was assembled with zero clearance to the bushing, so it did not move freely. With the glass off, try pulling up on the flipper - see if there's any slack there at all.
