I purchased an Indiana Jones and it is missing what appears to be a post under the left slingshot plastic that I assume assists in deflecting the ball when it drops from the Idol and crosses the outlane. I have seen this post on other games on location but mine just has the hole which I would like to replace with the correct part. I have not been able to locate this part on the parts list. I am unable to post a picture at the moment. Any help is appreciated.

If I think I know which one you need it is a normal star post.
This is the only pic I have but you can zoom in.

I think you mean the right slingshot and it deflects the ball through the 'narrow escape' gate when it drains down the right outlane (not from the idol). As SealClubber said, it's just yellow star post and you'll need the rubber also.

On the other machines I have seen it is a slim silver post. Here is a picture of the hole where it appears mine used to
be.

Looks like where your star post would go the hole got stripped out and someone moved a thinner metal post up from it, so it wouldn't interfere with a ball going down the return lane. Note the slingshot plastic extends over where the missing start post would go.

Yes xfassa, that is what I have seen on others, not a star post (but that is usually everyone's first assumption, and it was mine too). Would anyone's happen to know the part number of that piece or what it is called so I can order one?

Your machine is missing the 1 7/16" metal post with the cutaway for the sling rubber. I took a quick peak at the playfield but didnt see another one to point to, however, most suppliers carry them. Pretty sure its 1 7/16".

My guess his link above is the one to order,,

Good that the mystery has been solved. If the op doesnt mind I have a part question as well. My IJ arrived with a plastic snake loose on the playfield. I dont recall ever seeing this snake on the pin and cannot locate it in any pics. Why did it have to be a snake. I hate snakes.

No problem, lol. I have seen that snake mod for sale on eBay.

Question. When the idol releases the balls a lot of the time they come through the ball gate hit the rubber on the sling shot and bounce back through the ball gate and down the out lane. How do I fix this issue?

#15 9 years ago

Ok, I thought you were talking about the adjustable star post to the right of the one way gate.

The ball gate shouldn't let it go from the inlane to the outlane unless it's bouncing back so quick before it' closes?
