I have a Data East Secret Service with a ball eater mech. ( Same as Mousin Around ) I have the main up eater frame and parts, however it's missing the small down eater coil, bracket, and plunger. I can order the coil, and probably fab up a bracket, ( although I'd rather have the correct one ) but I don't know where to get this unique plunger. I don't see it on anybody's site, although I could have missed it. Any ideas on where I can get one or something to sub?

Here's a pic of the complete assembly. It's the small coil.

Unfortunately, it's not even really mentioned in the manual. The Mousin' Around manual lists it as a complete assembly with no part numbers. (Except coil numbers)

I JUST sold my complete assembly 2 days ago. Rough!

Do tell me if anyone finds the tiny plastic plunger. That part was melted on mine as well. Why does the tiny coil melt seem to be so common?

I think this is the coil

Thanks swinks, it's great you remade this. All I really need to find is the small plunger. It seems to be the toughest find.

Looks like the part number might be 515-5089-00 , according to that drawing...

Here's the whole assemble on Marco, but it is out of stock.
Part 500-5076-00
And it does not appear to the include the small coil and plunger required.

Swinks, thanks a bunch for that pinball search site. Planetary pinball has the plunger. I couldn't find it but that site did. Donated to the site. Thanks to everybody for their help.
