Bassy,
Cannot understand how for as many years as you have owned the 6500s you
have never cleaned the drag. I do the drag two/three times to every one
time I open the reel. Always tiny sand particles on top washer and salt
corrosion. And a drop or two of 4 in 1 oil on top washer is enough and
IMO needed. Most Penns have same washer sequence. Once spring is
removed turn upside down and gently tap the washers out and they
should be in proper sequence.
