Just got my tunnel up and running and after a few runs hooked it and dunked the motor.What kind of maintenance tips can you guys give to prolong the life of it..I'm using the UL1 motor and ESC

Thanks Tony

After a dunk, I take the motor off of the lower and spray the motor with corrosion x...then wipe it down with a cloth or paper towel and let it sit and dry out for about 10 min. before running again...

After a day of running I flush my motor out with WD40 and put a couple drops of oil on the bearings. After the WD drains out of the lower, I relube the lower. I have UL1 tunnel motors that are three years old and they still run great.
 
Corrosion X after a dunk and at the end of the day. I just let it drain out the lower.

Motors hold up great.
