Default gear broken in distributor... can i replace that?

the pic below isnt of the distributor off of my car. but the gear you can see in the pic is broken on my distributor. do i need to buy a whole new distributor or can i just replace the gear?


edit: and what other cars would have a distributor that would work its a 91 teg?

if you have another distributor to get the part from, I believe it is possible to replace just the gear.

HOWEVER, dismantling your distributor to that level makes it a huge pain to put it back together, and it'd be really easy to break it, or get lost and not be able to put it back together correctly at all..

I'd say just get a new distributor..
as said, distro king is good. Honda dizzies die fairly commonly..
