the clutch is really easy to install and the timing belt is not a problem if its shot
The 1993 Geo Storm is not an interference motor, because my belt just broke,(Nov 2005) and I got the same question answered on the following website: "www.nutzandboltz.org". My daughter's 1990 Geo Storm timing belt broke while she was driving it. She tried to start the engine but it would not run. We were told that it was an interference motor and that the motor was now shot. Being a little skeptical of the "experts" I put a new timing belt on and the engine started and has run fine for several months (clutch just went out). So much for the experts, by the way how ard is it to change the clutch? Thanks M in Omaha

If the timing belt brakes can engine be damaged on a 1993 geo storm?
If you have the 1.6 Liter SOHC engine the answer is YES. This is an Interference engine, and if the belt breaks engine damage will occur. Belt should be replaced every 30,000 miles. I know that sounds absurd, but that is the factory recommendation. If you have the 1.8 Liter DOHC engine, no damage will occur. It is NOT an interference engine. Replace the belt every 60,000 miles.If you have the 1.6 Liter SOHC engine the answer is YES. This is an Interference engine, and if the belt breaks engine damage will occur.

Timing Belt.... Check all your belts.
Is there a wire you need to disconect or a jumper wire you need to install be you set the timing on your 90 geo storm 2 2 1.6l?
There should be an under hood sticker with this information. Also a haynes or other such manual you can obtain at a parts store will have this information. On my 91 storm with 1.6L sohc there are two plugs on the passenger side inside behind the kick panel. One is orange and one is white. With the engine off connect a jumper between the two outside connections on the white plug. Start engine and check timing. Engine should be warm and at correct idle.

Check that you got the timing marks right. If you recheck the timing belt work & it's o/k then start with the basics, Is the fuel pump running when you turn thekey? whats the fuel pressure? Is fuel getting to engine? do you have spark?
