Quoted from vid1900:You would need to swap the coils, but it's certainly doable.
Are FP coils the same length as WPC?

Quoted from billsfanmd:Picked up a beautiful TOM and have an issue with right flipper sticking. Power off and it stays up so its mechanical...I replaced coil sleeve and filed coil stop (new one ordered) On inspection here is what I found. When the flipper goes all the way up the leaf switch is triggered by the little arm that pushes it against it. The tip of the leaf switch stops about half way up that rocker arm and there seems to be just enough tension to bind it no matter how I bend tip of leaf...all metal pieces look smooth. It is missing the little black plastic tip that slides over it but I am adding one tonight.
When I put it all back together hoping the new stop and maybe a new spring will solve this. Seems weird but anyone have their leaf switch catch on the metal arm that trips it?
Thanks

Yes. It is the inevitable eventuality with worn stops and plungers, or the wrong plunger type installed (too short), or the wrong EOS installed.

Quoted from vid1900:If Bally could save 50 cents on an EOS switch, they would have.
I have heard that Bally included that piggy-back upper flipper feed switch to purposefully delay the upper flipper to limit the current draw.
You may see more GI flicker with flipper activity, or even resets or connector scorching. However, I worked on a Flash that had a jumper bypassing the lower feed switch in place for years before I serviced it and it seemed to do OK.

Quoted from RampShot11:Thanks Vid. Should the power wire be on the banded side of the diode or middle lug or unbanded side of the diodes?
