Would like help with this also. Looks like it should feed the right flipper, but then, sdtm.

Seem obvious, but double checked Side to side level? And that spinning disk is level too since ball rolls over it? (Not sure how you fix the latter). I think I mine pretty level; always hits right flipper

Funny I was just telling my friend I have the exact same problem. 90% of the times when a ball is let go from the magneto lock and the magnet doesn't pulse, the ball drops straight down the middle. I leveled my game side to side and it is still doing it. I played my friends LE and it drops onto the right flipper every time.

I noticed if I shake the game just before the ball is let go it has enough movement to change the straight drop to sometimes hit the flipper. Maybe the ball lock metal chamber is slightly askew in my game?

I have a Pro and I don't ever recall a ball going sdtm from this position. Just by looking I can tell the magneto lock drain is a little to the right of the middle of the flippers. The ball rolls straight to the right flipper. Your ball must drain just to the edge of Wolverine's left arm. Interesting.

You could try playing with the side to side level, both in the front and the back. You might be able to adjust is slightly off from center (according to your level) so that it doesn't drain SDTM. If it's just slightly off, it won't affect normal play.

FWIW, I have a Pro and I don't think it's ever drained SDTM from the Magneto lock except maybe during the chaos of a multiball start.

I believe it's an issue specific to the LE due to the spinning disk (any gap or leveling from the disk can cause a slight change in the ball's trajectory which will noticeably increase over distance).

Only two things it could be really. Either off lever side to side, or the release forks are no right. One higher than the other, sticking up a little, the bracket they are hooked to is crooked, or one is loose.

I guess it could be one of three things, you are right!

You can adjust the center spinner up/down/tilt. If it's off center it's best to open up the brackets that mount to the playfield a little, I've had the thing apart many many times...

You need to level the machine with the glass off and putting the level directly on the PF between the flippers. I originally did a quick level on my Magneto LE with the glass on and had balls constantly draining between the flippers from the lock. I also needed to adjust the rear levelers as well to dial it in even more. With my machine perfectly leveled front and back, I haven't had any drains since.
