I'm having that done now(98 S10). $380 to replace the chain. If they have to pull the oil pan to remove broken pieces, it will be $805. When they get it back together, they will do a compression test to see if any valves are bent. Don't know what it will cost to fix that.

How do you check the timing chain on 1995 Chevy astro to see if it is broke?

If your vehicle is at least 60,000 miles it is recommended you replace the timing chain. If your timing chain broke, your engine would NOT run because the timing chain is what rotates your engines camshafts to open and close the valves. Also, you would have some serious engine damage if you were driving and your engine suddenly just quit and it happened to be your timing chain. There really is no way to "check" a timing chain as it's hidden behind the belt area of the engine (if I'm not mistaken). If you're going to go through the labor of "checking" a timing chain, you might as well replace it, as the average timing chain job costs about $220, $200 of that being the labor.


1995 Chevy Cavalier shut off with no warning at speed and will restartbut has fire will try to start with starter fluid What could cause this to happen Could it be the timing?

Sounds like maybe the timing belt/timing chain broke or jumped. If it will not run at all, I'd guess broke.


Do I need to replace my engine if a my timing belt broke in a 2005 Chevy aveo?

Although the Aveo has an interference engine and the belt must be replaced every 60,000 miles it does not necessarily mean the engine has been destroyed when it broke. It may have only bent a valve or it may have busted a piston or both. In any case the engine can be repaired and it is not necessary to replace it. This is going to be a very expensive mistake for failure to replace the belt on time.
