 $.$ and  %)% to AP, George !


I'm always happy to help out and the child's crew have done a few favors for me in the past, so it made sense to help out ! George literally lives 2 minutes away and it was a pleasure to meet him and his gamesroom ! ANOTHER KISS fan, so we chatted about the various "line ups" over the years.

The problem - The LHS ramp shot (for multiball) drops the ramp on the RHS. The blue steel flap had a rivet in the path of the ball. The rivet had lifted gently - enough to cause the ball to make contact and "slow" the travel of the ball. So it was a physical issue that occurred every time.

The fix - Remove the Supercharger and the RHS ramp assembly. Tap the rivet back in and file the head slightly. I also bent the ramp flap so the ball almost jumps the rivet head anyway. Re assembled and it tested well.

All done - Game plays exceptionally well.

Love the Gibson Flying V, George !
