How do I remove and replace part #41 the take apart thumb screw on a penn squidder 140. Thank You, Paul Beck
hi first try and unscrew the collar holding the thumb screw in ,it barely sticks thru on the inside of the chrome ring, you might have to hold it with a needle nose pliers or cutting pliers, if you can't get the collar off, take a small punch and gently punch it out, be careful not to chip or brake the side plate. a new thumb screw comes with a tiny threaded collar,usually brass in color, insert the new thumb screw , on the inside install the spring then thread the threaded collar on, if it gets a little tough and you can't thread it all the way down holding it with your fingers, take a small cutting pliers and gently hold the collar being careful not to pinch it out or shape. you should have no problem, good luck. harryk
