Picked up my first soda machine project. A Westinghouse WB-78-K6-D.
The coin changer is a FP9800-807 and it appears to have been...modified
using epoxy to secure the two levers on the 5 cent chute assembly. I was able to chip away the epoxy to allow the levers to move again, but I don't think they will move as freely as intended for operation.
Studying the manual, I noticed that it is also completely missing the .10 & .25 chute, along with both of the nickel change tubes.
Am I correct in assuming that the chutes from the S75-9800 series would not work correctly in the FP9800 series changers?
Are there any places other than eBay, sodajerkworks, and funtronics to find replacement parts for changers? If I can't locate any parts, would a S75-9800 work as a replacement, making sure that I get the 120v option?
