Back play in handle of Quantum spinning reel ree

[Fishgolfman]

A little handle backplay in spinning reels are acceptable. I was fishing a quantum spinning reel whose model number i don't remember but one that does not have a anti reverse system switch. It was plain irritating!! Backplay was an eighth of a crank or more.  I assume it's a bearing system anti reverse. Dirty or replace bearing?? Its a cheapo reel but i have 5 spools for it making it really versatile in fresh water situations
