Maybe, but not likely.
interference
Maybe, it depends on if your engine is an interference engine.
If the timing belt broke on an interference engine, the open valves and pistons would collide and wreck the engine.
No, it is an interference engine. I know this because I just pulled the heads on one that broke the timing belt and the valves are bent and/or broken.
The engine will stop running. This is not an interference engine so there will be no engine damage. Just replace the belt.
No, this is not an interference engine.
if i remember correctly the 2001 still has an interference engine.....if your timing belt broke you surely pinged some valves.
My 1991 b2200 is a non-interference engine. Timing belt broke and I just replaced it. No damage and runs smooth.
Yes, the 3.1 L is a interference engine. In fact I am working on one now that the timing chain broke and bent several valves.
i have a 2001 mazda 626 v-6 2.5 engine my timing belt broke i had the belt and tesioner pulley replaced and its running fine
No. My 87 Tercel Wagon timing belt broke last year and the valves were not damaged. 3A and 3AC engines are non-interference.
yes it is, if you broke the timing belt there is about a 90% chance you bent a valve
