Smoke on North Star Express

[wsommariva]

Hi everyone,

In 2005 I bought my set.  Smoke worked.  I ran out of oil and never used smoke again until today when I received new Bachmann oil.  I put in 20 drops turned smoke switch on....and no smoke.

Could have a burnt out smoke unit.  I see there is a better LGB smoker available.

So, how can I test if my unit is shot?

Thanks

You already have tested your smoke unit. Oil in, run engine. No smoke=bad smoke unit. Pretty simple,eh? On a serious note;make sure the smoke switch behind the smoke box door is in the ON position.

Yes switch is on.  I checked George's tips.  I'll look for that alternative unit.
