the 2.7l is an interference engine,if the primary chain breaks or jumps the pistons will hit the valves. it has a chain,not a belt(actually 3 chains)1 primary and 2 secondary chains 1 on each head to run the dohc's, the primary chain is usually the problem along with the primary tensioner going out,and on top of that the water pump running off the primary chain. when the water pump goes out (bearing or seal) all the antifreeze goes in the oil,and can cause more problems.

2.4 liter - 4 cylinder - SOHC ( timing belt ) interference engine 2.4 liter - 4 cylinder - DOHC ( timing belt ) interference engine 2.7 liter - V6 ( timing chain ) interference engine 3.0 liter - V6 ( timing belt ) interference engine
No, it is interference. Valves can bend if the timing belt breaks.No, it is interference. Valves can bend if the timing belt breaks.
A 2.7L has a chain, all other engines have a belt.
it has a chain 1 primary and 2 secondary and the engine is an interference engine
The 2.7 has a timing chain
Interference, valves can bend when the timing belt breaks.
The 1998 Chrysler Sebring has a timing belt.
60,000 miles. This is an interference engine. If the belt breaks you will have serious engine damage.
All Accords up to 2002 have a timing belt and they are all interference engines. From 2003 & up the 4 cylinder has a timing chain that requires no maintenance. All V6 Accords have a timing belt and they are interference engines.
It is inside the engine, driven by the timing belt/chain.
