Re: Newbie Questions (going OT)
I think we all know how to mix fuel for our chain saw now. I probably used
a bad analogy. Back to the original point...
The higher the ratio (between ring gear and pinion teeth), the lower the
gear.
Or:
http://www.csgnetwork.com/rnggrpinioncalc.html
"The higher the ratio, the greater the pulling power but lower speed for the
same number of engine revolutions."
We can move on and agree, or agree to disagree. :-)
