Good news ,i went back down to the layout & i looked more closely at the side rods & i was spinning the motor by hand & watching where the rods lined up between the front & rear & they were not lined up as RICKO HAD mentioned ,i loosened the screw & lined it up with the front rods so both are now in the same position put the engine back on the track ,powered up & off she went without any problems ,at least the time being ,but i will keep checking to make sure everything is ok,if it wasn't for you guys pointing out that a side rod didn't look right i don't know if i would have ever figured it out ,& RICKO ,i didn know about any notches ,i just tightened the screw ,being that it is working ok ,should i go back & see if it is in the notches ,or just leave well enough alone ? ,it makes me feel good when i can repair things myself ,but i couldn't do it without your help ,one thing i forgot to mention was DAVETY was that the nut you circled wasn't that one it was on the other side where i had to make the adjustment ,again many thanks for help ,this forum is the best !!!!!!!!!
