Perfect Mesh
When adjusting gear mesh, stick a piece of paper between the spur and pinion gears for the right gear mesh spacing. Work the paper out by rotating the gears. If the paper is torn in the process, the gears are too tight. Loosen up the pinion and try again. Properly spaced gears allow your vehicle to run better and help preserve your gears.
