Yes, engine gears can expand while running due to the heat generated during operation. As the engine operates, friction and combustion increase the temperature of the components, causing metal parts, including gears, to expand slightly. This thermal expansion can affect tolerances and clearances, which is why precise engineering and materials are crucial in engine design. Proper lubrication also helps mitigate heat and wear during this process.
