Working on this game for a friend and I don't have immediate access to it but here goes. The game seems to be running fine when you load three balls into it but when you try to add the 4th and then start a game it feeds two balls into the shooter lane? This is the first time I have worked on a 90's bally so I'm kinda stumped on where to start with this issue. I did go to switch edge test and verify that the opto board switchs are working for each ball in the trough. What else should I check? The software looks like it is Rev 1.0 I believe the newest version is 1.2. I see that the revision fixed an auto plunger issue not sure if that will help?

First step would be to make sure there isn't a 4th ball already in the sewer hole.
The game keeps a ball there to eject it faster during play.

It's called the Ball Saver feature in the adjustement menu.
You can try disabling the feature to see if the 2xball eject problem still occurs.
The game should play fine without it.

on mine...the opto in the sewer hole had to be changed. simple fix but the sewer has to register a ball in addition to the trough or it undercounts and assumes there needs to be one out in the shooter.
