You can flush it on the wheel, lean the wheel at an angle, stuff a rag or paper towels between it and the spokes and flush away. The rag will soak up everything coming out of the back.
Actually, I thought it may have been a cog slipping on the free wheel body. Note sure if this is a typical failure route or not. The teeth look good, just a bit "aged".
I need to pull it anyways. I want to clean the hub, and it's easier with out the free wheel. I used to do this regularly, swapping the free wheel between wheels. I had one of those UNI wheel covers back in the day, and had to pull it to install or remove the cover. And the sonicator will do a better job of cleaning it anyways.
