Default owb keeps sliping

Ok my owb on my mt2ss ,18 motor keeps sliping. I took it out and cleaned it and made sure it was catching. After runing it for like 15 mins it stalled and the owb is sliping again. I even took off the back plate looked in and didn't see a lot of oil I wiped it out alil and sealed the backplate since it was open. I'm useing losi nitrotane fuel now don't know what the other owner used in it. Can I clean the inside of the motor with something that I could just spray in there to get what ever oil is in there. Wat else could cause this. The glow plug needs to be replaced cause it stalls when I acelerate and then let off and tap the bbrake

That's sounds more like it needs to be tuned...

As for the OWB, for the twentieth time, what fuel are you running? High lube fuels cause your OWB to slip constantly...

I use losi sport. But I think the previus owner used traxxas which is high in oil content. How can I clean out the motor so it won't happen as often. I'm gonna use the losi fuel. I didn't think it could happen so fast after cleaning it and running half a tank

Just replace the shaft and the OWB and start fresh...
