Many of us have been running our On30 steamers for quite a long time, most likely with little to no maintenance. Is there any information as to lubrication of gears and bearing surfaces?
I have some trepidation about opening an engine and having parts go flying to all corners of the work bench. Hopefully any information would provide a guide to accessing critical areas for each rod and geared engine as well as types of lubricants to be used. I know there was a VHS tape that Bachmann put out a long time ago, but mine probably got tossed when my VHS player quit working a long time ago.
