Abu Cardinal 54 drag washers - different configurations?

[Fenns]

Thank you Martin - I will look forward to doing this at the weekend and will follow your advice and see how it goes with standard washers first, although I am susceptible to the odd 'technical gimmick' I have to say they have markedly improved the drag on my Mitchell spool (and before anyone else says it I know that's not too hard ..... but I still love them)

Am I correct in my interpretation i.e. remove one of the two metal washers as indicated in the photo of jeremy's reel?

Kind Regards,

Simon

Not remove a metal pressure plate but a teflon drag washer, try just two instead of 3 see how loose it is.
