I recently opened up my MXJ to maintenance it. I greased the main gear and one of the bearings. Once I put the reel back together, I lost a tremendous amount of freespool. I usually get up to 60 secs of freespool and now after the maintenance i only get about 15 secs of freespool. Can someone explain what I did wrong. What can I do to fix this?
Thank You.

i like to pack the right main side plate bearing and the two drive shaft bearings with grease. i leave the spool bearings open, clean them out with carb cleaner and lube them with corrosion x. which bearing did you grease?
Linear Mode
