But it's only good for 4 minutes.

That could depend on how aggressive the gearing is.

You must be using a small pinion.

Or a really big spur gear

Just to be clear, the pinion is the input and the spur receives said input.

Pinions don't go into spurs, they are both similar contributors to final drive ratio. The size of both are equally important in that determination. I identify with the bigger gear.
