Our MsPacMan/Galaga console machine works great except U.S. dollar Sacagawea coins stick 5-10% of the time below the reject button in the Wells-Gardner coin selector. I will appreciate any advice on how to prevent that. Would puffing some graphite dust into the coin slot help or hurt?
Thanks, Bill
 
Have you removed the coin mech and see if you need to clean it or anything binding the coin ?

Or foreign matter lodged in it.

LTG :)
 
I cleaned it as best I could without removing--which has made me nervous. Guess I should go ahead and remove it which will provide better access for cleaning. Thanks for the nudge.

Follow up question

I've never removed a coin selector. Do I remove the whole metal frame from the door and then extract the plastic part coin falls thru, or just the plastic part from the door?
