Yes. The engine is no longer firing in the proper way .If the piston comes up when the valve is open it will bend it..
The 2.2 liter four cylinder engine in a 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier has a timing CHAIN
If the timing chain broke on the quad 4 you don't need to worry about a chain you need a new head when the timing chain breaks on them it lets the valves come down and hit the top of the pistons which binds the valves or at least that what i have seen.
Every typical "V" style engine has a timing chain. the Chevy cavalier z24 has a 3.1 liter FI V6 engine. so yes it has a timing chain.
No, this engine uses a chain.
no
all engines in 2002 cavalier have timing chains.gmjim I just purchased a 2002 Cavalier with a DOHC engine. I think that it owuld have a belt instead of a chain.
Timing chains are designed to last the life of the engine and are replaced when the engine is rebuilt.
The timing chain should last the life of the engine and not maintenance is normally required. It is replaced when the engine is rebuilt.
The timing chain is on the front of the engine. Your drive belt tensioner pulley is bolted into the timing chain housing.
It depends on what engine you have.
It will cost you nothing because your Cavalier has a timing chain and not a belt. The chain is designed to last the life of the engine.
There is no Timing Belt. It has a Timing Chain ,, inside the Engine.
