Is your track clean enough? You aren't giving enough information. People can throw out answers and that may not even solve the problem.

My Percy is one of the worst runners I own. He stalls on switches for anyone if he is going too slow, and sometimes he stops out of nowhere. Percy is bad on switches too. This all relates to conductivity of his wheels and maybe just the motor itself. He could even need a good cleaning, so a screwdriver might be of need for taking him apart.

I don't truly know how to give any advice thus far.

I think I found a way to fix the problem screws by unscrewing all screws but one the middle one it solved the problem

All I did was I bought Bachmanns Conductive Lube, just put one drop on the wheels and put some on the brass contacts, clean the tracks really well and percy should run
