If you get 4 coins on any two cherry combination then I am betting the vertical finger that goes into the payout disk has either been bent of the finger itself has been cut off. This would cause a two coin payout to occur on non winning combinations and a four coin payout to occur on all two cherry combinations.

Thanks for the help guys, It was a the lower horizontal payout lever not hitting the slide in I just bent it up a little and no more extra coins, but now the cherries are paying right BUT I am one coin short on the Plums , bells and oranges' ? Where do I go on that? Thanks in advance

Cant say for sure, but this could just be the change in thickness from old to new coins.

I checked all the coins using old ones still the same oranges 7,plums 11,bells 15 ? has to be the coin slides??

I've got a lot more questions than answers on this. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the edges of the coin holes in the slides bevel off somewhat due to wear over time, and can't that lead to, say, the top coin which would otherwise be carried and dropped by the slide "missing the bus" so to speak? I can sort of imagine something like that happening with a dime or even a quarter slide, but a nickel is getting sort of thick to just be passed over that way. At any rate, all this would imply that there may be a way to simply shim old slides to make them function properly again-- does anyone do that, or is it inadvisable for some reason? After all, it's supposed to be a "Mystery Bonus" not a "Mystery Bone-Us" payout.
