Jeff2035 posted:An earlier post mentioned the motor starting to turn before the e unit cycled. Sometimes that happened to me so I installed a Dallee electronic e-unit which eliminated the problem and allowed the loco to start at a much lower voltage and run much more smoothly. Maybe that is why I like how mine runs so well.
That sounds like a good idea. Let's see how it runs when I get it, then I'll make the decision to change the E-unit.
