broken timing belt

Only his hairdresser knows for sure. It's an interference engine so the likelihood of damage is pretty high, but at low rpm's - well, maybe he'll be lucky. The only real way to know it to have it looked at by a shop - or by yourself if you're capable. No one can really tell you without looking at it, for sure.

I'm curious, how many miles since last belt change? He probably doesn't know. That's why it broke.

Definitely, no, highly probably, yes.

With any luck, you just need to remove the head and replace the valves and valve guides. Without luck, you may have to replace the entire head and a piston and rod or two, and possibly bore the block oversize.

How many miles are on it?

Matt

Hmm, no response. I guess we'll never know how many miles it takes to break a timing belt.

It's @ 110,000 miles +/-

and only the hairdresser would know the +- ;)
