Hi everyone,
I have original postwar 2343 and 2360 horns that don't work. Instead of refurbishing or buying replica horns I was considering finding an inexpensive electric/electronic horn. Does anyone have any suggestions? I just read about the True Blast II but it has a set sequence of blasts. I run conventional and I'm looking to stay in the $25-40 range (per engine) if possible. I'm using a ZW but have an MTH Z-1000 if I need to use it to run them after an upgrade.
Also, a side question. These engines were purchased new by my grandfather. I played with them as a kid in the 80's and cleaned and lubricated them recently. If I recall correctly, the 2343 F3 always had a growl when it ran compared to the smoother 2360 GG1. Is this typical of these units? Is it indicative of an improvement in the motor design from the 50's to the 60's?
Thanks!
