🔌 Function

The gear transmits torque through the engine's lubricated gear train to its assigned driven component. Accurate tooth geometry and location ensure smooth load transfer, correct rotational timing and controlled gear backlash.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Whine, growl or cyclic gear noise
• Chipped or pitted teeth
• Excessive backlash or uneven tooth contact
• Driven component timing or speed is incorrect
• Fretting or looseness at the shaft/hub interface

🛠️ Service Notes

• Inspect the mating gear as well as the one being renewed; a chipped or worn tooth on the partner will quickly ruin a new gear, so change them as a pair where the wear is shared
• Check the shaft, bush or bearing the gear runs on for wear and scoring before assembly and renew anything that is not to size
• Fit the gear square and press it home rather than driving it with hammer blows, which spread the bore and mark the teeth
• Oil the teeth and bearing surfaces on assembly so the gear is not run up dry on first start
• Where the workshop manual for your engine gives backlash, end float or timing settings for the gear, set and check them to those figures rather than by feel
