My son broke a wheel off the engine. Any suggestions?

Lol! Great question. Our's did the same. I tried super glue but it didn't last real long. Check with a Lionel distributer maybe. I've seen other little Lionel sets. Maybe they sell separate engines?

Ours arrived with a broken front wheel. We purchased a replacement online for $25 and were able to replace it after finding the manual online. Replacement was not difficult.

You Can Get A Replacement Tire From Walmart. We Just Replaced Both Tires. Our Son Rides The Bike So Much He Put A Hole In The Back Tire From Using The Break. He Loves It!

You'll probably need a flywheel too. Also check your slave and master cylinders. If any fluid comes out of the slave cylinder, it'll need replacement too.

I had the same issue. I put a couple of drops of silicone oil on the wheel as they suggested and this is working so far.

Same problem here. Sorry to say we've had no luck getting the wheel(s) to stay on. Keep reattaching, but still no luck.

How many wheel broken? If just only one, you can take the center wheel and replace it, replacement maybe hard to find, you need to find the right size and right base in order to install it

Good grief. That sucks. I suppose it depends on which bit broke. I assume it's the reverse thread end. Maybe it snapped deep enough that another try will grip enough to pull the whole thing out. Most auto part stores will loan them. If not I'm afraid it's a head pull.

Use a dab of lock tight on the threads. Let it sit over night. You can get it at any auto parts store. It's like $4

Not sure if you're asking if they sell replacement wheels or if you can remove the wheel from its axle. Yes to both. I have accidently broken one of the prongs off all 4 of my wheel axles, but they still all work and it actually makes it easier to get the wheel off and on. My cages have a wheel on each side of the cage, as they don't use the big purple wheel.

Unfortunately, I do not know, but I also need a new wheel. If you find out, can you post? Thanks!

In a pinch...duct tape. Not sure how long it would last for an official repair...maybe for as long as you needed it to. Jus' sayin' :)

I had the same problem and was able to get a replacement. I called the vendor who sold the product (it's on the Amazon invoice), told them what happened, and they ordered a replacement which was sent directly to me.. Great customer service! The wheels shaft break because they don't fit snugly into the slot at the bottom of the leg. The wheel then slips out and breaks when you move the file. After you replace the wheel, try to crimp the slot with a pliers where the wheel is inserted. That may be tough to do. Try inserting flat sided toothpicks into the slot next to the wheel shaft and snap off the ends. This will create a tight fit for the wheel shaft.

Two possible choices. Plug it with a tire repair kit or go get an inner tube from a Lawnmower supply company and put it in.

Try putting it in the track and roll it around the track several times FAST. If it's been sitting idle for a long time, this might bring it "back to life".

After a while, just replace the buffing wheel. They're relatively cheap and do the job.
