Team Daiwa Advantage 153HST

[K-ach]

Anyone have one of these that can post a pic. for reference? Took mine apart for cleaning and can't remember how the "clutch cam spring" (thumb bar release) was oriented. Got it in and reel seems to be working ok, but spring doesn't seem to be seated properly. If anyone can post a pic of an Advantage w/ drive side side plate removed showing orientation of this spring, would be much appreciated. Thanks!

The long arm of the spring is the one that is situated on the thumb bar side. As well, the loop of the spring is supposed to lay flat...gimme a few minutes and if you need me to, I'll take a pic of mine

Thanks Brad, that's the way I've got it in there. Looks like it wants to torque itself out of position but I guess it can only go so far. Need to get a digital camera and take a picture of these things before I tear them down I guess. Exploded drawing that comes with the "operating instructions" is next to useless. I think when I started out, my old Ambassaduer 5000D only had about 10 or 12 parts!
Thanks again guys.
