Rickw2 posted:Yes Pat it's running smooth thanks to it's new grease job. It took a little prodding to get it going at first, but after working it in a little bit, she's on her own. Funny thing, this is the first time I'm running it with power through a DCS TIU. I had it set on 18 volts max which limited the speed. I thought there was something wrong with the engine until I upped the max power to 21 volts which increased her speed. This engine is surely a power hog. I'm a little worried about the constant 21 volts for the light bulbs in the heavyweights. But other than that I'm a happy camper. Thanks again.
Yep!..the ol’ Pulmor sure likes the energy....they’re a bit of a hog....beings it’s either hardly been run or never run, I’m sure it needs some breaking in to loosen up....maybe run it with a long freight drag in hopes you can knock down that total voltage....you’ll be eating bulbs like candy at 21 volts....see if she’ll free up some and get that voltage down, or mod those cars with some LED’s and some of GRJ’s constant voltage boards.....keep us up to date.....Pat
