Back in the day, if you pulled the nozzle off the machine then the soda and syrup would come out unmixed. They had a little graduated box you could hold under the machine and it would tell you if the mix was off. Then you fiddled with some controls and tried again.
Usually the problem with a drink was that the syrup had just run out mid pour, but sometimes the settings would get off kilter. I suspect perhaps as the filter reaches end of service life and the pressure changes.
Glad to see they still use the metal canisters for the soda (milkshake mix did come in plastic at the time). Those fuckers were hard to move though. Need some upper body strength which as a cyclist I did not have.
