  • You may think if your match unit doesn't work, it just won't match at the end of the game. It's actually used for more than that, and really needs to work properly for the game to play well.

    Someone told me years ago …”the greatest diagnostic tool for fixing pinball machines? ….your eyes. This video reminds me of that simple truth. You firstly worked out the problem by looking at the unit and seeing why it was sticking or dragging. They are a tricky little unit, but they work great when they’re clean and adjusted. Thanks for the continued education.

    I remember playing that machine in 1978. It might have been the same machine, it always matched on 40. It was in the first and last pool/pinball hall I was ever in.
    It was a card game and my buddy would tilt the last ball when it was on 40. Funny what you remember, 40. Any chance this machine was ever in Detroit?

    Ron, nice work on the Pat Hand machine! I enjoy your content and have been watching all the historical playlists to keep caught up. I also enjoy your Amateur Repair Time series on Sundays.

    That stuff, which has begun to break down is particle board. It's notorius building stuff, because it brings formaldehyde to buildings.

    If you come across an EM pinball & there's something you can't replace or repair,you might try a solid state equivalent to replace the part,such as for example a PLC (programmable logic controller)that might replace a scoring motor.

    I'm seeing a major motion picture, maybe art deco stylistically like the recent Asteroid City, set in Chicago in the late 60s early 70s with some of the personalities involved in creating these EM games, and some kind of plot. Are you in?

    I wonder why the spider assembly was made with "snowshoes" or "ice skates" rather than a mushroom style contact? ..that way it wouldnt matter how they were oriented. I’m guessing cost maybe?

      @@LyonsArcade This was supposed to be a joke. I actually took the trouble to put a "😆" to make it clear. I didn't really mean to complain at all about Williams pinballs, which are superb machines. You're too sensitive to comments. I wasn't even talking about you. You shouldn't read them, or perhaps use the comment blocking option.
      My intention wasn't to be negative or unpleasant (as you are in your reply) and anyway, a string of comments that only say "that's great", or "everything is perfect and I completely agree" isn't really interesting. What's needed is a bit of joking and a bit of disagreement, allowing for discussion and perhaps even a change of mind. As long as there are no insults and as long as we're talking about pinball machines, why not give a sincere opinion (and a few jokes), even if it's not shared, instead of limiting ourselves to compliments? Anyway, it's not that important. If I watch your videos again, I won't comment, rest assured.
