The only time I had trouble with a pinion coming off like that was when my motor mount was misaligned, so the pinion was meshing at a slight angle with the spur. This produced a force on the pinion that pushed it outward toward the end of the motor shaft and it came off regularly, until I fixed the misalignment.
