When the seat belt roller attempts to pull out, and then comes to a sudden stop, what needs to be addressed to fix it?

If I'm reading correctly, he's having trouble with pulling the belts out rather than engaging. I have a freshly restored belt that is doing the same. Brand new webbing and they were supposed to clean the reel mechanism in the process, but don't have anyway to verify what was done without taking them apart. Regardless, new webbing so it should not be a dirt issue. It retracts just fine but I have to pull it out very SLOWLY to prevent the pawls from engaging and stopping the belt. I know that is common with belts of all makes to some degree, but this one is a bit extreme. The belt is installed properly in the correct orientation (pretty hard to install them wrong). I'm guessing a bit of teflon lubricant on the pawl mechanism might help but haven't ventured any further than guessing so far. Interested to see how this thread unfolds.
