Default Flexshaft

I recently got my third CW. The flexshaft on the first two never got hot, but the new one gets hot. I took it out and found no evidence that it had ever been lubed. I lubed it, but it still gets hot. Any ideas?

Jim,

If you used the thin lube, try the heavier stuff like Cam lube or other grease with moly.
