    How about using the wD40 first to loosen uo oil and grit followed by parts cleaner ?

      That should be fine, just lube the bearings or bushings after

    The problem with spraying the penetrating oil inside of the can like that is that it attracts dust and it will get dirtier faster than it did before

      I'd blow it out as much as possible then

    if you fill a glass up with the fluid and dip the motor in while it is running on a 12v battery you will also clean the brushes and the commutator. You can use wd40 or brake cleaner or similar.

    ⚠️⚠️⚠️Hay bud. Penetrating oil devolves what little grease or gear oil they use on the bearings. After cleaning the penetrating oil will evaporate along with the lube it needs. Always add lube after penetrating oil is dry. Penetrating oil has a solvent mixed with oil to thin it out. It literally melts grease from bearings. Add penetrating oil to a squeaky bearing, the squeak stops temporarily then it comes back louder.

      How long does it take for penetrating oil to dry?

    Hey I recently bought a slash 1/16 that came
    with the titan 12t and I rode it in a small
    muddy puddle and the titan wont start
    moving or work but it can turn on can you
    help in any way?

      Sounds like either the ESC or the motor fried. If you bought it brand new and very recently it should still be covered under warranty through text Traxxas

    I think you need to use bearing oil. Not WD-40 or penetrating oil.

    I don't think is a good ideal to spray wd40 into a motor. Wd40 meet heat will come out smoke. I accidentally spray wd40 onto my bicycle disc brake and when I ride fast, the smoke from my bicycle smoke came from the disc brake taught me a lesson that wd40 actually can catch fire on high spinning stuff.

    Penetrating fluid isn't lube, it's penetrating fluid... WD-40 is to loosen up rusty bolts, not for cleaning or lubricating.
