So I am rebuilding my 2f and I needed to replace my camshaft timing gear with a new one simply because the rubber/plastic in there is cracking and because it is just a good idea to do after God only knows how many miles and what kind of abuse this motor had before I got it.
I am concerned that not replacing that will mean that I will get a terrible whine from the new gear meshing with the old one. I spoke to the techs at the local Toyota dealership and they said that they don't need to be replaced in pairs and that it won't whine, but I am not so sure that is true.
Question is, do I also need to replace the timing gear on the crank too?
