I noticed occasional rattling noise in some of my Premier engines esp the ones in my MU's
After this procedure, the engines became much quieter and i also noticed scale 1mph became much smoother. The MU video at the end has almost 4K scale miles.
Thank you !!! I thought it was me. The trucks on my FM demonstrator are very noisy compared to my other FM trucks ...there is also about 6 more gears under that truck which is probably accounting for the noise !
George, I just went through that with a very good friend's engine. By using that plastic sleeve that bottoms out when inserting, it controls how far the pin that holds the gear can go in. They use Locktite to hold the pin inside the plastic insert. The same Locktite we used to build engines (Corvette) in the past. Give me back the old metal to metal force fit on the pin any day.
Also I do not over grease the gears, just a light film of lubriplate on the teeth and a drop of 0W 20 mobil one at the gear idler shafts...very quiet compared to my "rattle" days.
