    I totally agree with you about the ABU 7000. Mine sits on a light 6 to 15 pound line rated rod and gets most use chasing Coho on Puget Sound. It's sitting in my boat ready for tomorrow morning.

    Love your channel. I am able to service 20+ reals and feel confident having watch all your episodes. But I’m still waiting for the Ambassador 9000C tear down and maintenance.
    Keep up the Great Work! Frank

    This is identical to the one that I had. Mine had a chrome metal spool in it though. I wish I’d never sold it. This is such a beautiful and well-made reel! Thanks for sharing this one Dennis! - Chris

    I bought two of these burgundy reels back in, I think '92. I still have one. All I've done to the one I still have is replace the pawl and worm gear. I've worked on reels for over 25 years, mainly my own and for friends. I take them totally apart and clean with a solvent and reassemble. A few tips: 1) When reinstalling the crank side cover on ANY baitcaster, hit the freespool and it will go on flawlessly, without risking damage to the two or four brake pins, and as he mentioned, also make sure the brake blocks do not slide off the pins, 2) Unscrew both sides (if applicable) of the axle caps and apply a small amount of grease on the threads. This will not only help keep moisture out, but it will keep that "O" ring supple, 3) Put a drop of oil on the shaft of the handle knob. Turn it sideways, drop oil in, and spin it to work it in, 4) Put two drops of oil on the line guide guard. Get the guide to one side, put one drop on the center of the guard, crank the guide over to the other side, and put another drop on the guards' center and crank away to evenly distribute the oil.

    I would like to thank you for your knowledge and expertise, you rebuilt and brought back to life a couple of Penn reels that were my late fathers! I have since been able to pass them in working condition to his grandchildren! Thank you sooo much!!

      Thanks - I will go back and check. It may have been stuck on the star adjuster

    Oh well…was a good guess.

    • @2ndChanceTackle
      @2ndChanceTackle  Рік тому

      It was! Part of the diagnosis is to think what could be wrong and eliminate each possibility - Thanks - Dennis
