A 3.4 liter GM engine is an interference type motor which has very tight tolerances. If the timing is off slightly, it can result in catastrophic failure.

Is the 3.0 liter engine in a Nissan Quest a non-interference or interference type engine?

According to the history of the Nissan Quest Vg30e engine from 1993 thru 1998 these group of engines were non-interference engine, so if the belt breaks it will not damage the valves. This feature was demanded by FORD from Nissan before FORD agreed to used this engine in their ViLLAGER and Nissan Quest vans in the time of their joint venture.


Is the 3 liter engine in a Nissan Quest a non-interference or interference type engine?

I�m pretty sure it�s an interference engine which is why it�s imperative that you change the timing belt. You may also want to replace the pulley and water pump while the left side of the engine is exposed. On the Nissan 3.0L Engine starting 1993 as a request from Ford for their joint venture, Ford demanded that the engine be Non-interference. This means that the timing belt can break or jump and there will be no damage to the engine or the valves.
