Yes it is. Mine bent 6 valves. When the upper timing chain guide broke and chewed up the rest of the guides and gears.
If the valves were bent than the engine is an INTERFERENCE ENGINE. A non interference engine has clearance between the valves and the cylinder head so if the timing belt lets go and the valves are in the intake or exhaust position they would clear the cylinder heads causing no damage to either.
So the answer to your question is NO the engine is not an non interference engine
The 2.2L (5S-FE) motor is non-interference. The 2.2L (5S-FE) motor is non-interference.
The 3.5L is a non-interference.
Interference.
it did in mine it bent 2 valves and i end it up replacing the head on it
Non interference
IT is an INTERFERENCE engine.
It is a Non interference motor.
Yes the 5MGE is a non-interference motor.
Interference engine.
It is an interference engine.
The VG30E motor is an interference motor, with 0 valve clearance.
yes they are interference motors yes they are interference motors
