whats the worst that can happen? you can bend valves depending on how you handle the motor... i just purchased an astra estate 1600i with a snapped cam belt and i replaced the belt and still driving like a dream.
what year is the astra, timing belts in my experience are usually found on the left hand side of the engine block. it conects the cylinder head to the bottom endof the engine via a system of pulleys.
On my Vauxhall Astra 1.6 8v engine. The thermostat was on the left hand side of the engine behind the rear timing belt cover were the coolant hose leaves the engine to the radiator. hope this helps
approximately every 40,000 miles
especially with opel/vauxhalls to be on the save side i would say every 35.000 mls, and every 70.000 mls change your water pump aswell.
