Reply to Williams Firepower coil help pleaseThere are a lot of odd coils in this machine and I thought if they were matching (especially the pop bumpers) this may make it a bit more consistent in its play, and yes any coils that don't get replaced I will definitely apply the above tips. Cheers...Yesterday, 10:55 PM

Reply to Williams Firepower coil help pleaseInteresting you should mention the bumpers as I noticed that 3 of them have 800's fitted and the lower right is an 850. Now that I understand them a little more it makes sense as to how the game plays as the 850 has always seemed a little lame, even though the specs say 850's I am inclined to run 800's...Yesterday, 10:40 PM

Reply to Williams Firepower coil help pleaseDesolder a winding and take off 50 turns of winding from the 23-850 coil, cut and resolder and the coil will now be a 23-800. I would prefer to keep the slingshots at the factory 850 and power up the bumpers though. The bumpers can never be to powerful in my opinion, maybe drop them down to 750.
