I'd still use a regex to collect the contents of the lines :

use strict;
my $line;
while ($line = <DATA>) {
  chomp $line;
  print $line,"\n";
  while ($line =~ s/(?:^([^" ]+)|^"([^"]+)")(?: |$)//) {
    print ">>>",$1||$2,"\n";
    print $line,"\n";
  };
};
__DATA__
"72 3267S" "S2079" 1 no
"72 0250" "S3011" 1 no
"72 8351S" "S6101" 1 no
"72 17082S" "S6108" 1 no

The regex nibbles from the start of each line either something starting with a non-quote, or a quote and then everything including the ending quote and the separating space. At the end of a line, no space is allowed.
