    to Pachitalk!

    I know member Stevefury is in the Atalanta area. http://www.pachitalk.com/forums/members/stevefury.html I'm not sure if he cleans & repairs machines for others, but you might want to send him a PM and see.

    For the most part any information you need can be found here on this site.

    Also when you get a chance can you post some pictures of your machine.

    And once again Welcome to PT.

    What you have there is a 1971 Nishijin Model A Osaka (Joker). Osaka refers to the factory it was built in. (Tokyo was the other). I don't see anything wrong with your machine. Nothing looks to be missing or broken.

    Take a look at there videos and load it with some balls. (need at least 300 to make it work and about 500 for regular play.)

    Thanks for all your input. I have cleaned up my machine and it's almost ready for prime time. Actually it was easier to work on than I originally thought. I decided not to completely disassemble it since it appeared to be mostly dirty. It had been in storage for about 25 years

    So glad to hear that you did it all by yourself. That is what I had to do with my Pachinko years ago, and what got me into this hobby.
