Just received an engine from a south-east train reseller. The box appeared to have been subjected to high humidity. The engine appears to be new or barely run...but the axles all have rust spots on them along with some on the other unpainted metal parts.
The pul-more motor is somewhat stiff, but should loosen up with a little oil and break-in running. My main concern is the rust spots on the moto'rs armature. Is this a major problem? Is there some product that will remove the rust? I don't really want to return it, but if the rust is a major issue I have the return option.
Thanks for any recommendations.
