I would hold off till last to tweak the flanges. O gauge three rail is not precise for tracking. There is always side to side play. If it is an older e unit it may not work on its side as someone stated here. I would, if the boiler is off check all the wiring, get rid of old gease and replace with new grease, oil where needed but not too much oil just a drop. Also check the top of the armature for dirt deposits. I gently use a pencil eraser to clean it off. Also I clean out between the top sections of the armature because that area can cause some problems with dirt and grease buildup. Most of the time doing a proper cleanup with the older engines is all you need to get it going again...............Paul
