Here's another question- when the VUK sends the ball to the upper playfield, on my TSPP sometimes the ball bounces off the post a few inches below the scoop, and then falls back down the scoop hole (and sometimes repeats this several times before successfully making its way to the upper left flipper). Anyone else have this issue, or ideas how to fix it?
I've tried:
a) Lifting the little metal wire back up in front of the scoop that had gotten beaten down to the playfield level over time (which I assume is there to prevent the ball from falling back in the scoop). This worked for a bit to prevent the ball from falling back down the scoop, but it keeps lowering after repeated hits. How high is this metal supposed to stick out, and what keeps it in place?
b) Crafting a sort of cushion for the post to absorb the force and prevent bounce backs. Cushion inevitably ends up falling off after multiple hits.
c) Bending the metal guides on the left side at the top of the upper playfield.
Thanks for any thoughts!
