What is a interference engine?
an engine where, in the event that the timing is off or if the timing belt breaks, the pistons can collide with the valves and actually do damage.
What is an interence engine?
If the timing belt broke on an interference engine, the open valves and pistons would collide and wreck the engine.
What is meant by interferance and non inter fererance endine?
Interference engine refers to an engine design where the pistons and valves occupy the same space in the cylinder head, and they can collide if the timing belt or chain breaks. Non-interference engine design ensures that the pistons and valves have enough space and won't collide if the timing belt or chain fails. It's safer for the engine in case of a timing failure.
What damage can a timing-belt do to the engine and transmission on a 2006 ptcruiser?
It can make the valves and pistons collide causing severe damage in the cylinder head and possibly damaging pistons.
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.
Is the 98 Volvo s70 a interference motor?
Yes it is and when the timing belt fails with engine running the valves and pistons will collide causing damage.
What causes a bent valve?
The main cause for bent valves is a failure in the timing chain or belt. When the valves and pistons are not exactly in sync, they can collide.
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.
Is the 1988 Isuzu Trooper 2.6 an interference engine?
2.6 Isuzu engine is not an interference engine; in other words, if the timing belt breaks or cam gear locating pin shears, the valves will not collide with the pistons
If the timing belt breaks on 2000 Isuzu Rodeo will it mess up engine?
Yes, the valves generally will collide with the pistons. You can imagine the rest. If you where super lucky, there is one spot where all of the valves would be closed. ( unlikely!)
What damage is done when timing belt breaks on vauxhall astra 1.6?
This is an interference engine. The valves normall collide with the pistons when the belt breaks. Damage is usually bent valves, and sometimes broken valve guides also
Whats the problem Peugeot 106 no oil in the engine and the pistons bent all the exhaust valves changed the 4 valves and the pistons are still hitting the exhaust valves and the valve timing is right?
your timing can not be right
