I'm having trouble with the smoke unit on my Lionel F7. It only puts out smoke from the rear stack and not the front one. Any tips, I've tried blowing down the stack to clear the airway and that didn't help. A video is attached.

You might have to pull off the shell. The smoke unit has a single opening. A funnel fits into the output and directs the smoke into both outputs in the shell. Your smoke unit is obviously OK. Something must be in the funnel preventing the smoke output.

That's what I figured, I actually was working on a Burlington set of f3s from Lionel yesterday, so this will be easy.
I'd take the funnel to the air compressor and give it a blast down the non-working stack.

Worth a shot.
All fixed, thank guys.
