I’m trying a flipper rebuild and can’t seem to get the roll pin out with a tap or a slap. Any suggestions ?

Thanks sir! Was tapping it ever so hard but it was on a table edge. I’ll put it in the vise and try that !

Finally. Pins out and linkage back together. All back in. Flippers rebuilt.
Although I’m not seeing a big difference and the right one seems to chatter a bit.

I’ve only done 3 sets of these rebuilds - usually because something wasn’t working - so when finished I see a difference. This was just to rebuild them before I sell the machine and the buyer thought the flippers weren’t strong enough. So I did the rebuild thinking that would take care of the issue.

They’re both getting the balls to the top , just not kicking them too hard. And again the right one seems to now have a little chatter. I’ve adjusted the eos blades to have them at the end of stroke activated and checked the coil wires.

Any suggestions to make these a lil stronger?
It is a Hot Shot if that helps any?

No. I haven’t changed the coils. Just the rebuild kit I’ll look into that thanks!

For this game is there a certain number coil you suggest ? Don’t want to order a wrong voltage / size , etc

What I’ve found is A-1546 which has now been replaced by A-5141

Is this the strongest or just the actual replacement ?

Thanks. Now. Is the “yellow dot”. A5141-A even more powerful? Reason not to go to that one ?

Good comment. I got the rebuild kit from PBR and all seemed to match what I took off. I did notice adjusting the EOS blade made some changes (good and bad) so maybe I just need to keep working with that? But the stronger coils seem to be a possible answer. And for what $30? I think I’ll order a pair. Just don’t want to go too strong. So “yellow” or “orange” dot coils ?

Ahh good comments. And yes. Want stronger but not to a point to break off targets or break glass. Think I’ll go with the medium one as all have suggested. Thanks guys!
