My timing belt broke while driving on the freeway. Nothing was damaged. I think that I was lucky though.....

If you slip the timing belt on a 1992 v6 Nissan Pathfiner will it bend valves?
it won't slip, it will break if anything, and yes it will bend the valves
Will the valves head the cylinder head if you break the timing belt on a 84 Nissan 200sx?
The 1.8 liter - 4 cylinder is NOT an interference engine , but the 2.0 liter - 4 cylinder is an interference engine
Why do engines blow when timing belts break?
The timing belt is what keeps the valves from moving in synch with the pistons. If the timing belt snaps or cogs over the pistons are likely to collide with the valves smashing them both.
Does timing belt breakage do damage Nissan Pulsar 1989?
Ha yes timing belt breakage in any car can cause damage to the engine... things like bent valves, scored cylinder walls and possible engine failure. That is why the idea is to replace timing belts before they break.
What could break if my water pump breaks and my timing belt jumps off?
If it is an interference engine the valves can bend/break.
Where is the fuel pump relay on a 2002 Nissan Xterra v6?
Underneath the dash on drivers side, just above the parking break release.
Where are the 1993 Pontiac lemans 1.6 timing marks?
why did my timing belt break on my pontiac 1.6 1993 motor also will the valves be bent because of that
Does the 1996 Mazda miata have a interference motor?
No it does not, it is a non-interferenceif the timing belt break the valves will not collide into the pistons.
What happens if i don't change my timing belt as recommended?
If your timing belt were to break while the engine is operating, the camshafts would be out of time with the crankshaft. This 'out of time' would cause the valves to open at incorrect times in regard to the crankshaft/pistons. This break in the timing belt could cause valves to bend or break as well as damage the head itself; pistons could also become damaged in the process.
Will timing chain break ruin dodge ram 1500 4.7 engine?
It can if the pistons hit the valves while they are open. The timing chain ensures that when the piston is at the op of it's storke the valves are closed. When the chain breaks the cam stops turning allowing the valves to open and close so if the piston is still trying to travel up in the cyclinder with the valves open it will hit them and bend or break them. Also trying to start the engine with the timing change broken can have the exact same result.
Can a car crank without a timing belt?
The timing belt turns your camshaft which opens and closes the valves. If you have a non-interference head your engine will crank. If it doesn't then your valves will smash into your piston heads and something would have to break for it to turn over.
Could a new timing chain cause piston rods to break from shaft?
on some engine designs when the timing slips or is wrong the valve train will hit the pistons. something has to break, the valves, pistons, or the rods will bend.
