Lionel MKT 600 Still Not Fixed! - Postwar Engine Repair and Diagnosis

Postwar Lionel MKT 600 Switcher It didn’t run when I got it, it was dirty, dusty, dingy, filled with spiders, and totally incapable of moving under its own power. Well, it still doesn’t run well, but at least it looks a lot better!! —THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS SUBSCRIBED AND CONTINUES TO WATCH AND COMMENT! I APPRECIATE YOU ALL!!— I took my time and tried many different things to get this engine working. It works ok once in motion, but the motor is still stubborn and doesn’t like start. Check out all the steps I took, maybe you can help me realize what I’m missing, or use the video to help you diagnose your own engines. I’m not afraid to fail, I’m afraid of not learning. The legal stuffs: I have no affiliation with Lionel, or anything else for that matter, and my repair methods are my own based on what has worked for me. Your results may vary. I am not responsible for any damage resulting from any repair method. I am here mostly to provide inspiration and insight. Grab your tools and get to work! —————————————————— #dagryffyn #lioneltrains #ogauge
