Rode half a mile, stopped at a light, tried to pedal and the crank slipped and the freewheel was slighty loose and wobbly. I might've rode about 200 miles after the last time I put on the freewheel.

I didn't completely clean the thread in the freewheel so maybe. might be a while for pictures, I put it back on, no access to tools.
