Question, I was playing this morning and a small part of one of the Yellow Oblong Target Faces broke off... I've been looking for a replacement and can't find. The closest is this - but all I really need is the plastic target itself (and not sure this is even the right part, might be for newer Bally/Williams):
Okay, probably a Noob question... My upper flipper isn't going fully back all of a sudden. It works fine otherwise, but when I release it - it's sitting about a centimeter short of its resting position, which is causing trouble when I launch the ball and also partially obstructing the far right shot.
Does it need lubrication possibly? Or adjustment (when I open the glass it can be easily pushed back).
Quoted from toyotaboy:
Either clean / replace the coil sleeve, or see that the return spring has enough force and isn't binding against something. In fact I would manually move it with the machine off, and see how much it resists returning under the playfield.
Okay - thanks!

Or there's the possibility the flipper bat isn't set at the right angle (sometimes the nut loosens). I would also try manually pushing the flipper back all the way, then tighten down the nut.
It was the spring - easy fix. Thanks again.
