I use three spacers on my ball diff now.Your making me worry now that I have it too tight!
I was using the out of the box set up on my ball diff and that was too loose and I eventually went to one and I didn't like that at all. I was tinkering with mine before I actually read the setting sheet.
With the three I am doing good.
Fraz, are you working at a HobbyTownUSA if so do you have the 3P Infield track at your store? If not what are you running on? Its bound to be RCP right?

We have like 7 Kyosho ball diffs between the two of us and we have found they are all very different out of the box. These ball diffs require solid cleaning and consistent LIGHT lube and regular maintenance to be really good and predictable.
As for tension setting, the diffs have 2 spacers and one c-clip keeper stock. This is way too much tension. One spacer and the keeper is plenty for the torque put out but the little stock motor. I woud even say it is enough for the xspeed too but we decided the xspeed was a bit ridiculous speed for our track and shelved them.
The comment about fuzz in one of the front wheels should always be the first thing you check if your car is tweaked on power.
