The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Benjohadi - Aug. 13, 2011
I bet, many of you guys are wondering what is inside of the engines gears. Many had tried to open it, and not all of them can reassemble them. For those who are interested in knowing what inside the engine gear, here we go step by step.
I opened a Normal right spin engine gear that can be get from Rock Bison or Wolborg 4, ETC . It is divided into 3 layers that are :
i) First/bottom layer
ii) Second/middle layer
iii) Third/upper layer
i) First / bottom layer
This is the bottomless layer of the engine gear which is composed of :
a. 4 gears
Gear 1 : It is the gear located at the centre which is attached to the pin that is used to attach the engine weight.
Gear 2,3 & 4 : Gears that is attached and contact with Gear 1.

b. small spring (it is shaped like the spring inside the launcher, just the size is much smaller)
Spoiler (Click to View)
it looks like a toogle that is attached to the spring. This switch is the one that trigger the engine gear to spin (activated when the clutch hit the switch). The 'switch' which looks like a round (not really round) attached to the spring which will release the potential energy in from the large coil springIt is located at the bottom less of the first layer.

ii) Second / middle layer
After the cover is removed, you can see that there are two gears. Actually there is only one particular gear that is belong to this layer as the other gear ( Gear 6) is attached in the upper layer.
Gear 5 is attached well and in contact with Gear 6.

iii) Third / upper layer
This layer is consist of 1 huge gear ( Gear 6) and a large coil spring.
a. Huge gear/ Gear 6
It is one large gear that is attached to a large coil spring underneath it.

b. Large coil spring
One large coil spring that is placed at the upper most of the engine gear. This spring play big role in functioning the EG as it make the to spin.

Each gears are essential to make the engine gear functional. One missing gear would mean a total destroy to the engine gear and it can’t function. While, the springs are very sensitive and shouldn’t be move because it would be a great trouble to attached them to its place again. In addition. springs have elastic limit which mean in a certain amount of force, the spring can’t retain to it’s original shape which mean you just destroyed your engine gear.
With the pictures and the elaboration, I hope for those who tried / going to repair or open their engine gear know sorts of things they need to do when opening the engine gears.
NOTE :
• All Components of the EG regardless of types are the same. Only the arrangement for Left and Spin are a bit different which is one spin clockwise, and the other spin anti-clockwise.
• Remove the covers slowly and carefully as you might drop the gears and lost them or you might drop the spring(first layer). Putting them all together plus the spring won’t be an easy job.
• This guide can be used on any type of EG as long released by Hasbro/ Takara/Sonokong

Thank you! Now I can finally try to create my own engine gear. And btw, isn't it the Blade Base that makes it a steady release?
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears (Steady Release EG) - Benjohadi - Aug. 13, 2011
that one i really not sure..mm..perhaps i will check it later..then i wil edit it again..
thanks..

This is a good article. My only real complaint is the photos. You should use the Marco function on your camera for something like this. Otherwise, this article is fine as it is.

thanks..ahah...i used my phone camera as i dont own any camera..yeah...sadly..
it seems that i missed out some part in the first layer...it is the 'switch' which looks like a round (not really round) attached to the spring which will release the potential energy in frm the large coil spring..
i confirmed that steady release and normal right Eg are quite same..
and the components of left Eg are also the same..it is just that they spin in opposite direction..it is some kind useless for me to take pictures since it is the same for both the components and the arrangement of the left EG and right EG..
i dont know if i should open my left turbo and reverse EG...

Yeah, the photographs are terrible but serious props to you for taking one apart and managing to fix it again!

not really a big deal actually..everyone can do it..just dont drop the springs..know the original position of the compponents..haha..thanks <3
so sorry for the image..i cant find a good camera..the only i have is my phone..XD..so sorry about that..
but i promise that i will open the EG again to take better pics once i have good camera..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears (Steady Release EG/Normal Right EG) - Benjohadi - Aug. 14, 2011
Updated with better imgaes..adding picture albums to the OP..
i opened left turbo EG and discovered that the arrangements and the composition of the components are quite the same just that the large coil spring seems larger and compact..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears (Steady Release EG/Normal Right EG) - Poseidon - Aug. 14, 2011
i manageed to brake mine in a few seconds, my hands are the size of baseball gloves but seriously, nice article and good job with getting it done
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears (Steady Release EG/Normal Right EG) - Benjohadi - Aug. 15, 2011
Poseidon..thanks..
..my first article ever made though...since many wonders what inside engine gears and many have broke theirs..i hope that they can fix it now..XDbtw..any comments or suggestion?pleased to do so to improve the article..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears (Steady Release EG/Normal Right EG) - Poseidon - Aug. 15, 2011
look at a left spin EG and a normal they might be different
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears (Steady Release EG/Normal Right EG) - Benjohadi - Aug. 15, 2011
i opened them..the arrangement are almost the same..just the gears spin in opposite direction..even the left turbo is the same..just that the large coil spring is more compact..
steady release and normal eg is the same..the only thing that make the steady release is the tip of wolborg and rock bison..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Benjohadi - Oct. 17, 2011
This is done as well i guesssed..since i opened all of type of EGs..the components are the same..the only differ is how it is arranged so that they spin clockwise or anti-clockwise..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Poseidon - Oct. 17, 2011
What about dranzer GTs ?
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Benjohadi - Oct. 18, 2011
Same like Dragoon GT..the differ is its housing (cover)..its designed for right spin..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Gamecreator916 - Jun. 07, 2012
I have a question regarding the Left EG(turbo). Mine's been experiencing some problems recently. for some reason it would only release while winding it up. and i tested it in both a First Clutch Base(dragon g and GT) and a Final Clutch(gigars) and nothing. then after winding it up again, it wouldn't even "tense" up like a normal EG. Could you please help me on maybe a possible fix, it would be alot of trouble for me to get another one.

what do you mean by this : "for some reason it would only release while winding it up"
can you elaborate more?
you mean like the eg kicks in immediately after you wind it up?
if it is not tense enough..your large coil spring inside the eg might be spoilt causing it not to able to reach its max potential energy..
try to open it up and compare the arrangement and setup in my photos..in case some parts dislocated, etc..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Gamecreator916 - Jun. 08, 2012
ok. i'll try. hope i don't screw up. and yes, it kicks in while winding up. and usually sends the EG winder flying across the room
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Benjohadi - Jun. 08, 2012
i'm quite sure one or more gears is/are dislocated..or broken..there is possibilities..
refer to the picture here..i opened my left turbo eg ages ago..
http://imageshack.us/g/6/gear1234.png/
the arrangement should be clear enough for your reference..
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Gamecreator916 - Jun. 08, 2012
thank you so much! the pictures will make this alot easier for me!
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Starlight25 - Jul. 22, 2012
I've received my 2 NIB Gigars and I've only assembled one together the other is for NIB. When I assembled Gigars together and tried the engine gear for it although it does the cracking sound I can't hear any after sound. Is there some sort technical way for that after sound or is it just that way.
RE: The wonders of Engine Gears ~Done~ - Ultra - Jul. 22, 2012
Unless you have the hasbro one it doesn't come with one. As such it wouldn't make the sound. Also this really isn't the place to post that.
