The only vehicle I've ever knowingly operated with missing teeth was my beloved and much-missed 1966 Volkswagen Beetle, which was missing a couple or so off the flywheel ring gear. Of course, THIS wasn't a problem as I could just open the engine cover, grab the generator pully, and turn it a little to line up fresh teeth if the bendix couldn't grab. I'm surprised at how many operate old tractors with missing teeth in the TRANSAXLE (not the ring gear). How practical is this? Doesn't the problem gradually get worse in most cases; that is, don't the adjacent teeth start to disappear? Or, can one sometimes operate a minimally damaged gear for many years with no problem, provided all the loose metal is removed from the transaxle housing? I would imagine GOOD replacement gears are hard to find for popular tractors. Are they?
