AE Black Grease should be used or a grease that is highly resistant to wear. AE black grease should prevent that from happening...
I think the grease got hot too fast and the gear melted...
It's also aparent we need to know what motor he ran to get it to
do that.

If it's not the pin coming out of the counter gear then it's that cheap grease...
I have some automotive gear grease that never wears out...that would also work. Get it at an autoparts store.
