Default how can i stop my one way bearing from slipping??

i just finished breaking in my engine and ive ran about 8 tanks since, and for some reason, the owb in the pull start is already slipping. i took the bearing out and sprayed and cleaned it with nitro cleaner and i also cleaned the shaft aswell. helped for about 10 pulls but once fuel got on it, it just started slipping again. i really dont think it needs to be replaced since its only about 1/3 gallon old. any ideas??

What Fuel are you Using? Fuels with a High Oil Content will make the OWB Slip More often......

I drilled a hole in the bottom of the pull start. Once the OWB would slip id just spray carb cleaner down through the rope hole and that would fix the issue for a bit. Just spray when needed
