The pinion gear is stuck on the spool shaft.  According to Alan Tani's tutorial this should not be the case.  Any ideas how I can get it off?  Could the spool shaft be bent.  I sprayed it with Kroil, but it still will not come free.  Thanks for the help.

A little heat may help.

rusted, huh!  you're gonna have to soak this one and give it a few days.  the double screwdriver trick will not work here.  alan

Soaked it in Kroil all night and it now came loose from the spool shaft.  Thanks for the help.
