@zhubl posted:The dynamo on the 2019 challengers has always been tricky for me. It always seems to spit fluid that then travels down the side of the boiler. But yes it’s best to raise the locomotive so that the fluid goes down the funnel where it belongs. As for the main stack I rarely count drops. Just fill up a dropper and dump it in.
You're right - there's a specific issue about these that militates in favor of tilting the engine to get the fluid into the chamber that holds the wicking. I might have inadvertently avoided this by using compressed air (an airbrush) to push the fluid right down. You shouldn't have to do this without being told that it might be necessary, which the relevant manuals do not do.
P.S. The "120 drops of smoke fluid" video is here: https://youtu.be/1asUWbJtfok
He's absolutely right. There's another one from @Laidoffsick on the dual chamber smoke unit in the cab forwards from 2013 that is also accurate.
