That engine is not an interference engine, so no, the valves should not bend in the event of a timing belt break.
If the timing belt breaks, the valves get bent immediately.
yes
Yes, valves can bend.
The Ford Motor Company made the Ford Escort zx2 2.0 motor, a "non interferance engine" meaning when the timing belt breaks, it will NOT damage your engine components. -Antwon00
No , according to the Gates website ( they make timing belts etcetera ) the 1.9 liter four cylinder engine in a 1993 Ford Escort ( IS NOT AN INTERFERENCE ENGINE )
I believe the answer is no. I have a 1994 Escort LX with the 1.9 liter engine. I broke the timing belt, and there was no damage to the engine. Yes, it is no. I had the same experience last night and nothing happened to the engine. I have a 94 Escort LX with 1.9L engine too.
There shouldn't be any damage to the motor. Older ones would bend the valves in the head, but that would be 1986 and earlier 1.8L. New timing belt, and should be alright.
I have a 1996 ford escort that will not start and it has a new starter on it and a new battery in it but it still will not start
Will anything happen to the motor if timing belt breaks on a 2001 ford ranger
According to Gates ( they make timing belts etc. ) the 1.8 L and 1.9 L engines in a 1992 Ford Escort are NOT interference engines , so apparently no
