Hi redman!...I'm no reel doctor fo sho but I know ambassadeurs! There is a BIG chance its just dirty! Those reels are tough! One of the easiest reels to work on! Remove handle n star, remove thumb screws n left end plate ( don't loose the brakes). Remove screws from right side plate and that will give you access to your internals. Clean n lube....should fix problem
