I just bought a pre-2000 6x4 with the Kawasaki fd620d engine. The seller didn't know about the plastic cam gear issue and didn't know if the gear had been changed out for the steel gear. He had owned it only for the past four years. I took it anyway, but out of curiosity would like to know if the plastic gear had been changed out or not, without tearing into the crankcase or removing the water pump, both of which require major disassembly. Anybody got the trick?
