"we" all know that our em's like to be played, and that they are pretty kind to us if they get played...
the lesson was driven home again with me yesterday... due to me being sick and then subsequently breaking my foot and leg, my machines have gotten very little play over the past several months... an occasional game here and there, but not the usual couple hours a day they were used to...
my bestie came over yesterday afternoon for an extended session... first off, i had forgotten how much fun it was to play pinball for 5 straight hours...
secondly though, there were minor issues galore...
- pro football: "halfback" flipper was very sticky... several games got this loosened up again, although something tells me i should clean it... and of course, that damned as stepper needs to be adjusted again...
- target pool: the ten's reel is locking on... also some targets are not lighting balls, and some balls are staying lit at the beginning of the game... time to rebuild the score reel and clean some switches...
- 4 square: multiple rollovers not working... once game was exercised a bit, all but one were revived... that one has had issues for a while, i may have to replace the whole switch assembly, it appears as if one of the switch blades has lost its temper...
- jacks open: miraculously, only one bulb out, rest of it worked fine...
figured i'd share a reminder to PLAY YOUR GAMES!
