Rail Co Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Hello guys I am starting to get into 9v now and I have 5 motors. They all run at different speeds and some are slower when they first start but get faster when they have been running for a minute or two. I am wondering if anyone has tips and tricks to fix/tune up or clean the motors so that they all run at the same speed. They all run fine it's just some run slower. Thanks -RailCo Quote
Hod Carrier Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 If the motors are old they might simply need a little light lubrication and running-in. Like anything mechanical, bringing something back into use after long periods of inactivity requires a little bit of fettling. Clean any parts that need cleaning then apply a very light oil very sparingly only where it is needed and wipe away any excess. Then just hook it up to a 9V supply for a few minutes and allow it to spin without any load. Quote
