having trouble starting my truck when I first start it. The OWB is slipping what is a good sign if it is going out or if I just need to take it out and clean it. If it just needs cleaned what is a good way. thank for any help
 
Cleaning it is pretty easy. Just remove the OWB and start by cleaning it with nitro clean or denatured alcohol. Soak it pretty good. Then shake all the alcohol out of it and let it dry. Won't take but a minute. Then lube the bearing thoroughly with light oil like 3-in-1. Slap it all back together and you should be good for a while. In my experience it'll probably happen again. But if you know how to clean it quick, you can hold off on replacing it for a bit.
