The number of teeth is so you can work out the gear ratios for the driver and the driven gears.btcctroy wrote:Haynes manual will tell you the ratios.
Why do you need to know how many teeth they have.
Nobody on here will know the answers to your questions, i don't for one

It makes a phenomenal difference when you are doing it because you want to, rather than because someone says you have to. There was an entry exam when I did the mot course, don't know if it's the same now. 50 questions, general vehicle mechanical knowledge. I got 49 of them right and they said it w...
