For the tutorial for GTi321. Started on it last week, it had a stripped worm gear and pawl. Took them off and oiled the bearings, put it back together and that thing spun like a top. I loved it but the reel didn't belong to me and the guy that owned it couldn't deal with it without a line guide. Oh, needed a new eccentric lever also. Oh, by the way, this is a left handed reel so everything is #### backwards to me. Tore it down, cleaned it up and the drag washers looked like new. Took a little time getting it back together but it's like a brand new reel now. Still don't care for the line guide and worm, it slowed the spool down a bunch. Thanks again
