The 1999 Mercury Sable came from the factory with one of two engines :
The 3.0 liter " Vulcan " V6 engine , which is an Over Head Valve / pushrod design engine , or
The 3.0 liter " Duratec " V6 engine , which is a Dual Over Head Cam design engine
No , it is not an interference engine
4 cylinder engine is an interference type.
1342
if it is the 4cylinder engine ,it is a big YES ! double overhead cams too.
On the throttle body.
A 1998 Mercury Mystique with the 4-cylinder 2.0 DOHC appears to have a non-interference engine. Therefore, if the timing belt breaks, there should be no damage to the valves/pistons.
Either a 2.3/2.5 4cylinder or a 3.0 V6
Cold

The V8 engine is in the shape of a V and has 8 cylinders. The 4-cylinder engine is inline and only has 4 cylinders.
