Black Hole: the coil that launches the ball from the lower playfield to the upper playfield through the tube.

Anyone know what value coil this should be?

The manual is less than intuitive... and I'm not sure if its called out at all.

The coil we have in there now is so strong it hits the glass hard every time... and sometimes jumps over the wireframe back onto the playfield instead of draining.
 
I will see if I can tear mine open this week and look at it or throw a meter on it if that helps. I played that machine just before it went to you. I should have bought that one, its way nicer than mine from what I remember.
 
IIRC there is a section on that in the System 80 FAQ. If it's the same as HH, your best bet is to rewire it to use a pop bumper board per the FAQ.

I did the VUK mod on my HH and it hasn't failed since.
