Timing belt not installed correctly. Seek professional help.
If it is an interference engine valves can bend when hit by the pistons.

I'm assuming petrol. Last one l did had snapped valves which needed to be replaced. There were also scrapes on the top of the pistons but that was ok as piston crowns hit dropped valves. Used the original head but l had it crack tested to make sure there was no more damage to it.
It is a NON Interference engine. The pistons have reliefs cut into them, in order to prevent damage if the belt snaps. Therefore if you snapped a belt the valves will not collide with the pistons. Source - A friend of mine that has been a Ford mechanic for 21 years.
Slim to none! Valves will remain open while pistons move upward and usually bend several valves.
Ex. "You snapped a twig." "I think I snapped something." "She sanpped her fingers." Then of course there is Snapped the show where wives kill their husbands.

When the timing belt breaks, the engine goes completely out of sync. The engine dies and cannot be restarted. It is my understanding that the 1993 Geo Metro 1.0 has a non-interference engine. What that means is that though the belt breaks, chances are the engine is not destroyed and replacing the timing belt will resolve the problem. In the case of an interference engine, unusually the engine pistons come in contact with the valves and causes severe engine damage. Regularly replacing the timing belt according to the manufactures recommendations, will keep the engine running smoothly for many years.
