Does anyone have for sale or know where i can get this part? I have a ton of odd carwash tokens(i used to manage a car wash) and would like to convert it , so i can use them.I want to also keep my original part....just in case i break it, that is why i need a second to experiment. it is on my yamasa (tekken)machine I hope the pic is not to big. thx for your help.

what sort of size are your carwash tokens cold you put up a pic with sa a quarter next to it for comparison we may be able to help

Any of the major vendors will have that part. You will probably have to call them.

It's a standard Yamasa coin mech.

But aren't carwash tokens HUGE?

Also, how many do you have? Unless you have more than a 1000 it would probably be easier to just buy tokens.

I'm currently using alloy car wash tokens in all my machines. The ones I have are the standard size of a pachislo token. They work fine and the added color is neat.

The tokens i have are about the size of a nickel and appear to be brass ....just a little smaller. and i have about a gallon bucket full of them!. They fit in the slot but dump down the side of the acceptor...they are the same thickness as a pachi token..... any help to convert would be appreciated.

I would make sure they work in your hopper first before purchasing anything.

thx chris,
good suggestion
I will try that first!

if there the size of a nickle they ain't gonna work in your hopper . your hopper is designed for quarter size coins and will jam. unless you can find smaller wheels for your hopper designed for nickles (would be cheaper to buy tokens and sell yours on ebay lots of dirty cars around that need cleaning .)

a temp (reversable) fix is to use a strip of aluminum tape (home depot,lowes) place 1 to 2 mm lower than height of token, place token on ramp and mark at start and end of ramp.
Jeff is right on though, check if the hopper will jam, not worth messing up a good Pachi for a bucket of free tokens.
We had some parking tokens here at the college that became obsolete when the card parking system went in.

I am sorry to have edited this post, but we do not discuss the conversion of pachis to accept real currency.
