I should have sent all of my Tekota reels to Tuna Toms to be gone over! Some of them are 8 yrs old and although internally they still seem to work as new it is time for a tear down and cleaning, I could have had the power handles installed at that time for no additional labor cost. Probably not a good way to be but I am one of those people that thinks that if it is not broke don't fix it, but some preventative maintenance would probably not hurt. It could save me some headaches this coming season. I should send in the 3 Daiwa reels I still have that either do not work as intended or are totally crap in for repair and then sell them.
