A 2.0L DOHC Suzuki motor. Which is what Chevy used in alot of the Trackers. And YES valve damage will happen. Mine bent six valves when the upper chain guides broke.

It can make the valves and pistons collide causing severe damage in the cylinder head and possibly damaging pistons.


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.

ANSWER YES, The valves will hit the top of pistons and either the valves will bend or the pistons will be destroyed.......

On a 1997 ford explorer 4x4 4ol v6 SOHC why would starting fluid spray blow out of the air intake instead of sucking it in?

It sounds like you've got timing chains that have jumped. The job of the timing chains are to keep the intake and exaust valves opening and closing in proper time with the up and down motion of the pistons. If the chains have jumped, and are no longer in rythem with the pistons, the intake valves could be opening when the pistons are on the way up, instead of on the way down, thus exausting out of the intake manifold, instead of drawing air in through the intake manifold. If this is what has happened, and I strongly feel that it has, then you probably have damage to the valves in the engine as well. If the valves are opening at the wrong time, the pistons will usually collide with the valves, that should not be open, but are, thus causing bent valves, and possibly piston damage.


Do you need a new engine if the timing chain breaks on your 1994 Ford Courier?

Damage is only done if the motor is an "interference" design. ie the valves and the pistons overlap in the same place, only kept from colliding by the timing chain. When the timing chain breaks on a interference design, valves and pistons smash together. If it's not an interference design, the pistons and valve won't come into contact if the timing chain breaks, so odds are no internal damage done.
