If the one-way starts slipping, it's usually indicative of an O-ring failure in the backplate. Once oil starts leaking through, the one-way will soon foul up again with oil. This a common problem with rotostart/pullstart style back plates.

The solution is to de-grease the one way and replace the O-ring while you're at it.
