So I recently picked up my first pin which is a DE Batman. I played a few games on it when I first got it home and the left flipper was stuck sort of horizontal to the face of the cabinet. It would almost never go all the way back down where it was pointing to a front corner. I folded up the game to move it and when I set it back up both flippers are now like that and pointing directly at eachother.
I am a complete pinball newbie so can someone tell me if I just need to adjust something or do I need to buy flipper rebuild kits?
On a seperate but similar note, I also ended up picking up a Dracula and the left flipper seems a little weak. Again, can I adjust some stuff or do I need to buy rebuild kits. I have a bag with a bunch of spare coils in it that came from a warehouse buy. I was sort of hoping that one of the coils would be the one I need and I could just replace it and my problems would be solved.
I have ordered rubber kits for both pins and new chrome balls (for the Batman only). Is there anything else that I should do right away. Clean the playfield, buy wax and wax it, change bulds to LED's. Or can I just play them for a while and enjoy them?
Thanks
