Rick---Proper alignment to the two sprockets is good insurance for long
sprocket life. However, worn (stretched out) chains can speed up wear of
the sprocket teeth. This is usually visable if the teeth appear small,
or sharp, with a ledge  present at the roots of the teeth. You might
want to compare what you have with new sprockets. Place a new chain
around both new and used sprockets and check the "wrap".
