6500's acting up. Help!
Mon Mar 26, 2012 11:03 am
This is an issue I asked for help with previously but the topic is now locked. (below in blue)
A couple of the guys (AG Paddy C and the Dodger) said it was the clutch release arm and that it needed a tweak with a pliers to fix it. This worked temperoraly on my Hi-speed. I now have this issue again with the hi-speed and my old model rocket. What am I doing to cause this? Should I just get new ones?
Any feedback/help would be appreciated.
Turned the handle a couple of times and I went to put it in free spool, I missed the button stopped winding but the spool continued rotating making a not too pleasent noise . Turned the handle a couple more times without putting it into free spool same thing happened. Broke down the reel again and reassembled everything again and the same happened.

Thanks AG. Onto Blackdog so. Am I doing something to damage them or do they just wear out?
