If the timing belt breaks the engine valves and pistons can hit each other causing
damage to the engine
by what do you mean interference engine?
The Villager is NOT an interference engine. This is straight from a guy who was engineering liaison between Ford and Nissan on this project. The catalogs that say it is are WRONG.
It is non-interference. I think some mechanics say it is an interference type because one of the major repair manuals incorrectly states that it is interference, it is not...
It is an interference engine.It is an interference engine.
It is an interference engine.It is an interference engine.
this is a interference engine ,is this a belt change at how many miles or did the belt snap,you didnt say this makes all the difference,since this a interference engine,and a broken belt could mean major engine damage,to valves and pistons,
If you mean interference engine that depends on which engine it is. 4 cylinders non turboed 8 valve are generally non interference. Most of the others are interference units.
do you mean is a Honda engine an interference engine? in which the valves will get bent by the pistons if the timing belt fails? then yes.

Interference,
Interference engine.
All zetec engine are non interference most guides say its interference but the zx2 and focus forums say its not. to many greedy mechanics say the valves are bent but its b.s mine broke and nothing wrong
