Reply to "PS 2 Speed Issues"

Mike,

I would suspect that the timing tape for speed control is damaged or otherwise defective. You'll need to remove he boiler and inspect the stripes for one of the following:

  • Tearing of paper timing stripes would cause the engine to run faster than its displayed speed
  • Fading of black stripes towards grey would cause the engine to run faster than its displayed speed
  • If the stripes are painted, they could be overly porous, causing the engine to run fast.

This and a whole lot more is all in The DCS Companion 3rd Edition", available for purchase  from many fine OGR advertisers and forum sponsors, or as an eBook or a printed book at OGR’s web store!
