Disassemble and clean Zillion

Featured Replies

I used in saltwater last year and today it’s reeling rough. 
I’ve got the side plate off and the spool out. 
What else to do to clean It? And where do I oil It? 
 

thanks

Your best bet would be to send it out to @Delaware Valley Tackle for a complete teardown, deep clean, and lube. You need to get the salt out. Good chance the pinion bearing on the spool side is fubar. It and the crank bearings and RB aren't corrosion resistant. The price for the service is very affordable and the timing is probably right just before the big rush starts.

I’ll shoot him a message. Thanks

Salt water corrosion will likely require a little extra effort. Not ideal for a first diy attempt. Send at your convenience with this form:
