How do you fix a timing chain How do you know if you have a bent valve?
You don't fix it, you replace it. Replace the belt according to the schedule in your owner's manual. If it breaks and your engine is an interference engine, you will 95% of the time have damage. You will know the extent of the damage when the engine is torn down. ---------- Saturns do not have a timing belt, they have a chain, as stated in the question. Symptoms of bent valve will show on a leakdown test or engine simply will not run.
Can a broken timing chain on a 1991 Pontiac grand am cause a bent valve?
YES IT CAN BEND A VALVE WHEN THE TIMING CHAIN BROKE VALVE TRAIN NOT MOVING AND THE CRANK IS STILL MOVING CAUSING PISTON TO COME IN CONTACK WITH THE VALVE THAT WAS OPEN
Will I have bent valves in my 2.0 16v suzuki vitara due to timing chain failure?
If your 2.0 16v Suzuki Vitara has a timing chain failure, it's possible to have bent valves, especially if the engine is an interference design. In these engines, the pistons can collide with the valves if the timing chain slips or breaks, leading to valve damage. It's important to have the engine inspected by a mechanic to determine the extent of any damage.
What causes a bent valve?
The main cause for bent valves is a failure in the timing chain or belt. When the valves and pistons are not exactly in sync, they can collide.
How do you fix a timing chain belt on a 92 Saturn SL2 and how do you know if you have a bent valve?
No such thing as a timing chain belt. It is either a belt or chain. Replace the belt according to the schedule in your owner's manual. If it breaks and your engine is an interference engine, you will 95% of the time have damage. You will know the extent of the damage when the engine is torn down. The 1992 SL2 has a timing chain. Mine has 240,000 miles on it and is still running fine.
If the valve timing is off will it bend the valves?
Yes, if the valve timing is off, it can lead to valve contact with the piston, potentially causing the valves to bend. This misalignment typically occurs in interference engines, where the clearance between the piston and valves is minimal. If the timing chain or belt slips or breaks, it can result in serious engine damage, including bent valves. Regular maintenance ensures the timing system remains properly aligned to prevent such issues.

What is a bent valve?
when the piston comes to top dead center or in full up position the valves must be closed if they are open the piston will hit the valve and bend it this usually happens from a valve timing issue by a slipped timing belt or chain. sometimes though this will happen if the valve sticks open from a bad valve spring
Will the valves get bent if timing chain breaks?
Unfortunately yes. The Saturn motor is considered an Interference motor. When the chain breaks the neutral landing position of the camshafts will allow valves to be open, as the engine slows down from its rotating mass it will bend these open valves.
