What would happen if the drive belt snapped with the engine running?

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.
