Well I just got an electric EEL, but it didnt have the clip so I modded it and when I took it apart, I mixed some pieces up and after I was done I couldn't remember how it went. All I really need is a picture of the inside. That would be great if anyone could do that.

Thanks

Hahaha, that's awesome. Sounds like a kid's puzzle book!

wow, your eel's internals look completely different from mine. I am missing all sorts of peices! Somehow, it still manages to work every once in a while.

really? I haven't seen the inside of too many of these. I fudged this one up once before and this is how I put it back together. All the peices seem to work. The only thing that's different in the real gun than the pics is that the lower spring is supposed to be stretched out and attached to a peg. That's where the assembly problems come in. Stretching that spring out makes the clip advancing mechanism VERY unstable, and it tends to pop out of place as soon as you let your finger off.

What I do is, I take the other light housing part off, where the clip goes past the chromed part of the light, and put that on to hold the mechanism in place. Then you can hold that however you find to while you try to put the outer shell back on. It's a LOT easier to hold that clip/light part than it is to hold the clip advancing arm in place

Man that thing looks really complicated. My light bulb is burnt out on mine and ive been wanting to repair it for a while. Thanks for the pic.

Ohh and BTW if anyone has an electric eel clip i need one.

what pieces are you missing? Maybe I can make some molds and resin cast them for you. I'll be making molds anyway, as soon as I get enough $$$ for the damn urethane.
