How the hell did you open the motor, just drill the 4 rivets?

14:22 Looks like your "Free Throw" upkicker is super weak or pointed in the wrong direction, you may want to look into fixing that. Normally it kicks the ball down to the right flipper strong enough that if you don't use the flipper the ball will bounce over to the left flipper.

Great work! Congrats! The basket motor gearbox was riveted??

Yes it was riveted. Someone had attempted a fix prior and had used bolts

I wanna reset the high scores for this machine. Any insight?

[@jmclairmont]

Yes, it is rather easy! If you open up the panel on the front, there is a small board inside to the left with a single button. You can turn the machine on and use that button and the flippers to get to the settings mode and cycle through the settings. I believe the top five high scores are some of the early settings. When you are done, just close up the front of the machine and cycle power! Reply back to this comment if you need additional help.
