how do you know if your spurt is striped or no good?

[Dreaux]

I striped my bell (not bad but enough) due to bad gear mesh. Well my spur is not nearly as bad as my bell. But if you look at it very closely, it is rounded off on one side very slightly. Is my spur still good??? or does it have to be perfect??? and the edge of the teeth are shinny too.

I'm assuming you must have a steel spur gear. It may still be useable, can you post a clear pic?

Does the car still run?

I have no problems with mine, and I don't need Flomax. I don't care what all the rumors say.

If you notice stripes in yours, seek medical attention at once.

If your spurt gear has all its teeth and works, it's good. If it doesn't work, there's a slight chance you may need a new one. I'd think twice about using a damaged spurt gear with a new hardened clutch bell myself.

I wouldn't use a good steel gear with a bad plastic gear myself....

If your 'SPURT' gear has all its teeth and works, it's good. If it doesn't work, there's a slight chance you may need a new one. I'd think twice about using a damaged 'SPURT' gear with a new hardened clutch bell myself.

It's a 'SPUR' gear, not a 'SPURT' gear.

 

[Crunkvilletx]

dang and when I talk to my friends I've been calling it a spurt gear... LOL.

 

[Apples]

Man if your spur is no good your car wont go or go very fast. Both my car have done that in the last week mine just sit there idoling/revving but going nowhere

 

[Crunkvilletx]

I would probably stay away from the metal spur gears because they will end up stripping your bell
