Default Rockola 1448 start relay ?

I need to replace a Rockola 1448 start realy (DC).I don't have any
other info to what size coil I need,I checked this relay with a ohm
meter an didn't get a ready.Since there was a piece of plastic
inserted in it to keep it energized,I'm assuming this is a bad
coil.This is why the machine apparently keeps looking for a selection.
(Earlier post)
I'm getting close to the end of the mechanical restoration of this
machine.Can someone tell me where to purchase these coils?I have no
idea were to buy or what size coil this is.
Hoping I can get this operating so I can start on restoring
cabinet.Thanks

Wow-thanks Ken,I wasn't sure I would get a reply. I have a ton of
pinball coils,so I think I'm going to try a "Hold" coil from a
pinball.I've tried Williams,and they are a fraction too big.I have
several Gottliebs I'll try next.If the size differance turns into a
problem,I can either make adjustments to the contact holder or change
it out completely for a pinball contact relay .My mind works slow
sometimes.
I couldn't imagine it would be that hard to find a small electronic
piece that make the machine a go or blow--Without the start coil
working the machine would either be dead,or constantly alive were you
wish it was dead...
Victory sells the other 2 coils in then machine,but not the one I
need---

Thanks

I would not use a 30 volt pinball coil. I tried this once and it got
hot quickly. Ended up putting a Bally 50 volt coil in it.This was a
448 R-O play control relay that was open. I think I used a G31-2000,
but not real sure on this. This was an in-home service call & I never
got a call-back so it may be a long-term fix. Also if your coil is not
cooked, but just open the wires often break close to the terminals.
You can often unwind one turn and solder it back on. Ray
