What sort of grief - is the pickup across the pawl out of sink with the line lay on the spool mate?

no probs
i have the 330 gti , had the same prob and decided to take it out , you just need to pull both sides off and you will be able to remove it and leave the bar in
i havnt had a prob since , also done it with another reel

ye
after going out on sunday its all outta wack.
i took the screw out of the level wind and there is a little coulanding with two prongs. one of these prongs are bent. therefor the level wind isn't running.
i also lost a fish due to it :( it was my first dhu as well
i'd rather be fishing
