Yeah, thats the page. That got me thinking. I think I'll give Bob Roberts a call. I didn't realize he was like that. I am kind of stuck. Ill make an effort to find a good set of schematics..

Thanks..

Tom - The Workmate is my black and decker bench... I thought it would be a bit harsh to ask Mrs Birdman to hold the whole cabinet up ewhilst I bolted on the legs.

Kken - In the post yesterday. Hopefully to you for Xmas. Have worked long shifts so couldn't get to post office before...

Well, it followed me home tonite... Its not as pretty as I hoped, but its still cool for a first game. I brought a buddy with me, and he kept on saying how nice it is, and how good a shape its in.. In reality, the paint is faded on the cabinet... otherwise it is in good shape. I wanted to beat the guy up a bit on the price, but with my buddy it was kind of hard to do. I'll get some pics tomorrow...

What do you use to clean and wax the playfield with. I have Butchers wax (Bowling Alley Wax), but it says it leaves a satin shine to it. I want a high gloss I think, right?

I did that once...brought a friend along to help and he just made it harder to barter because he just kept saying nice things about the machine. I wanted to slap him upside the head!  upside

Now I just tell my buddies to keep their mouth shut (or sit in the car until I need them) and let me do the talking.

Save your money and avoid pinball wax. A friend with a massive  collection of pinballs suggested Kit Car w/ carnuba (he swears by Kit, claims it has a higher Carnuba content  than other brands) Apply it with a peice of nylon stocking ( it's abrasive enough to  pick up the  grime buildup, but  not to  rub off paint)   let the wax dry to a haze, then  buff with a soft and clean cloth.

In between waxings, I  do a quick  clean  with Lemon Pledge, it leaves a shine, but doesn't leave a  waxy buildup. And it smells  good.  tounge

Tom.. I did learn my lesson... I'm kinda shocked with this guy.. I really didn't expect to have that happen with him.

Kilroy.. Thanks.. The bowling alley wax is pure Carnuba..

I pulled the glass and started cleaning up the playfield a bit.. There is a protector over the main section which cleaned up fairly well. The spots off the protector are dirty and will need some work to clean. I put it back together until I get the bumper kit.. Then  I'll rip into it and detail it all...

Bob Roberts did me well. I sent him an email on Friday, telling him the problem, telling him that people wanted me to replace the flyback, and also some of the diagnostics I've done already. He wrote me back suggesting its not the flyback and its probably a cold solder joint. I pulled the chassis and inspected.. sure enough, there was a bad solder joint on the main power resistor. I resoldered it, and its working fine now...  happydrinkers
