Premier Genesis Diesel Engine
After removing the engine from storage, add another 25 drops of fluid, letting
the wick soak up the fluid for 15 minutes prior to operation.
If you experience poor or no smoke output
when the smoke unit is on and has fluid,
check the wick to see if it has become hard,
blackened, and unabsorbent around the
heating element. Remove the smoke unit
inspection cover from the locomotive’s
body (see Fig. 4). After removing the
chassis and inspection cover screws, lift the
inspection plate away and inspect the wick.
If it is darkly discolored and hard, it should
be replaced.
Replacement parts and wick replacement
instructions are available directly from the
