Playfield cleaned. New elastics desperately need changing (lol).

Reproduced the problem, which was basically the launch plunger was pre-extended and giving weak launches. It seemed associated with weak right flippers. Raised the playfield, inspected right flipper button switches, lowered it for another look, and the problem was gone.

This one may arise again.

This Pinside thread talks about this particular issue

Its possible that the right flipper button is aftermarket and pushes further than the stock one would?

Open Problem: Autofire plunger will get stuck in the upright position occasionally. I think it can get in the way of the right flipper as well? Pushing the right flipper button will slightly move the plunger, and I had the flipper switch and button get dislocated.

Easiest way to reproduce problem is to hold down right flipper button while firing the ball with shifter.
