Like anything, the more you do it the better you get at it. This is only the 3rd or 4th e-unit I've had apart. Check out my other channel @pinballmayhem
Excellent video Jeremy. I've always been too intimidated by the E-unit to attempt to work on one. Your explanation and demonstration on how to rebuild one has motivated me to take on the challenge the next time I come across an old engine that has an E-unit in need of repair. Thanks for taking the time to put this together!
And mistakes can be made! The best advice I can give to someone who is trying to learn is to not force anything. If you’re having trouble taking something apart, stop and look, you might be missing something….. my early days working on junk (not just trains) was hard learned to use some common sense lol.

That's awesome Brad ! You got this.
Lol, parts go flying. I can relate. Great video Jeremy.
For sure, of course when I had the camera rolling on this one - the parts refused to go flying
I am still amazed by the design and how the e unit works .
Me too. Simple yet complicated
Great video. I was looking forward to seeing parts go flying 😂😂
Me too Corey! I'm slightly miffed they didn't
I'll never forget the first one I tore into..... it was a mess to say the least lol. But I'll always say you'll never learn if you don't try!!
For sure 💯! I get asked frequently - how do you learn how to fix these? My answer is by just doing it and learning from my mistakes.

That was an awesome video. Happy flag day.
I really appreciate the feedback Paul
