I have a LRP Spec 3 engine, but I don't think this engine would be killing the 1 way bearing in the spur gear would it? The one way bearing in the spur gear will spin freely and my truck goes no where. I tried cleaning the 1 way bearing with non chlorinated brake cleaner but no deal, the damn thing just spins and will not catch. So I degress and have to say there is something that I am missing or don't know....what the hell is it?????! ARGH!!!

I just inspected the inside of the 1 way bearing and its fried, the 'w' ramps for the bearings are completely gone!!!! The cylindrical steel guides are falling out of the bearing!!! Something is destroying the 1 way bearing. I noticed today the my MB will some times just stop when its at a low speed, as if the brakes are grabbing and then releasing. Something else is wrong here....hmmmm

You need to clean it, dry it,
and then add some one way bearing oil.
