It sounds like maybe the gears aren't meshing correctly. Verify that the new gears are installed in the correct orientation and if possible, check that they operate correctly with the output checks.

This machine sometimes has a problem with the side door shutting all the way. Try opening the side door, then closing it and holding it closed with your hand (forcibly) and see if that makes a difference.
