Justbass11 Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Ok so I cleaned my Shimano Citica, Now it doesn’t want to engage and clicks when I pull on the drag...this might not be so good. Any ideas what could be wrong??? Thanks for your inputs. Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted April 3, 2018 Super User Posted April 3, 2018 Sounds like multiple things are wrong. You likely put the handle assembly/drag stack together improperly to cause the drag issue. And if your clutch isn't working, you definitely did something wrong. I'd find the manual schematic and take it apart again. Or if you're not comfortable, send it to a professional like DVT. 1 Quote

Super User JustJames Posted April 3, 2018 Super User Posted April 3, 2018 Search you tube for critica or curado I for service and maintenance (give that your citica is the same as curado I). Watch how they do it over and over, you might find the way you did wrong. Make sure to have schematic on hand. Seem like you not set main gear correctly. Did you do anything to worm gear? 1 Quote

If you take it back apart find your reel schematic AND a good video on youtube to follow along with so you can see visually what might be wrong (I always found that more easy to check against than my reel schematic). 1 Quote

Justbass11 Posted April 5, 2018 Author Posted April 5, 2018 Thanks Mike and the rest of you guys for your advice, I tried to fix the reel after watching some YouTube videos about the reel and look up the schematic, still not fixed. Anyway Mike sent you an email hope to hear back from you. Thanks again everyone Quote
