Charlie Kile Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 False. It wont cause measurable wear on the crankshaft gear. However it will be noticeably nosier. Charlie RQB3921 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfg Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Perfect answer!!...No extra wear on the crank gear, and the only real negative (?) is incresed noise between the two metal gears as opposed to a fiber and metal gear.
