Yamaha - Driven Gear - Engine Drivetrain Component - 6L2-11537-00-00

Overview

When internal gears start wearing down, you’ll usually hear it before you see it—noise, rough operation, or inconsistent performance. The driven gear plays a key role in transferring power inside the engine, so when it’s off, everything downstream feels it. I’ve seen motors quiet right down and run smoother just by replacing a worn gear like this. It’s one of those parts that keeps everything working together the way it should.

Key Features

• Efficient Power Transfer – Transmits engine power smoothly between internal components.
• Precision-Cut Gear Teeth – Ensures clean engagement and reduced mechanical noise.
• High-Strength Construction – Built to handle continuous load and rotational stress.
• Factory-Spec Fitment – Designed for proper alignment within Yamaha engine assemblies.
• Wear-Resistant Surface – Engineered for long-term durability under constant use.

Engine & Boat Compatibility

Designed for Yamaha outboard engines with compatible internal drivetrain systems. Commonly used across small to mid-range outboards on fishing boats, skiffs, and utility vessels. Always confirm part number compatibility before installation.

FAQ

Q: What are signs this driven gear is worn?
A: Grinding noise, reduced efficiency, or uneven operation are common signs.

Q: Can this affect overall engine performance?
A: Yes, worn gears can reduce power transfer and cause rough operation.

Q: Is this a simple replacement?
A: It typically requires engine disassembly, so it’s often done during major service.

Q: Should I inspect other gears at the same time?
A: Yes, it’s recommended to check all related components for wear.

Q: Can poor lubrication damage this gear?
A: Absolutely, proper lubrication is critical to prevent premature wear.
