Has anyone had a Revo S20 back spin on the hook set?
Ive had this reel for bout 2 years bought new but only used it a couple times. Ive checked to make sure the lever is clicked over in the correct position and it still will backwind on me. Trying not to go thru sending it back to Abu if Its a simple fix.

I had the same problem with an Abu Revo sent it in they fixed it and good as new. I had to pay for shipping. From what I was told not an easy fix the reel had a broken part.

Big Papa - I dont have experiance with this reel but the point of failer is most likley the slider retainer in the anti reverse is not engaging and therefore you always have reverse on. IF you are experiancing that sort of thing where when you click the lever you can still spin the handle forward and backwards its either that pin not clicking into the oscillation gear or the gear itself.BigPapa wrote:Has anyone had a Revo S20 back spin on the hook set?

If you cant spin it forward and backward with the handel and its only happening when the drag is under load it could be the clutch assembly - https://www.ereplacementparts.com/abu-g ... 89780.html
Ive had a few spinning reels taken apart mainly Shimanos and Pflueger but id say if this is not your comfort zone send it over to a reel guy Dan Issace with REEL EX, but I dont think Dan does repairs on ABU. If that is the case PM me and Ill give you some alternatives.

Very common, blown anti reverse. ABU will replace new. Call them. Dan

If u go on abu website u have to print out return form and pay for shipping but they usually fix for free . It took about 4 weeks last time I sent one but they didn't charge anything/just shipping. When those reels sit around ( in boat rod lockers) corrosion can really mess up one way clutches/bearings especially if u fish dirty d! U can also drop at hook line and sinker /oakley but will have to order parts / won't b able to cover under warranty

back in the day , my very first Garcia baitcaster was a 5000D ( around 1976) I think it had a 3 to 1 gear ratio .
I was in a high school fishing club and several of my fishing buddies had the same reel . It would turn the handle backwards when the drag was going out . We all called them " knuckle busters " because we all fished 6" Jelly worms , T-rigged and all of us would tear up our hand setting the hooks .
