This is a single powered truck unit I just acquired. It ran fine at any speed but I noticed the body was warm and the bottom of the truck was very hot to the touch. Do AF diesels run hot? I tore it apart and degreased the chassis. The old grease was pretty dried up. I repacked it with quality lube and cleaned up the commutator. I can't get it to run (off track). The set screws might be the problem, but the armature seems to turn pretty easy. When I apply power (to the brush springs) it just hums. Once the wheels turned slowly, but when I tried adjusting the set screws it just hums. I've spent over an hour and think I've covered every combination with the top two set screws. The armature isn't binding anywhere. The field coil heats up pretty good pretty fast when I supply power. Any suggestions?
