    Default Right reel not aligned properly, feels a bit more resistant and noisy

    Hello! I picked up my first machine at a yard sale. It's a Macy Thunder pachislo, (thunder explosion type a). It seems to be in pretty good condition but for the right reel. First, it looks as if it's a tad off from the payline. I opened it up and gently spun the reels and this one in particular feels like there is a touch more resistance. You can hear it spinning just a little more than the others. Once in a while it will get to a slow start on the intial spin, but it's been infrequent and I haven't had it but a day to see how often it happens.

    My basement if finished and I hope to add a couple machines but I have to figure what's going on with this first.

    Thanks for any help!

    It can be a loose connection. unhook the leads to the reels and clean them good with glass cleaner,and dry them off good them snap them back tight, or blow out the dust that might be settled on the reel motors. It doesn't act to serious in the problem.
