A 1998 Chevy Cavalier is an interference engine meaning any timing failure will result in catastrophic damage. A free-running engine will simply stop running until and can readily be fixed.
The 98 Cavalier 2.4 is a NON interference engine.
Yes the 2.2 liter 2001 Chevy Cavalier does have an interference engine. This means the valve and pistons share the same space in the engine.
how do you change a timing chain on a 2003 Chevy cavalier echotech 2,2l
I read that the 96 cavalier is a non interference engine. Best bet is to call a Chevy dealer or autozone might know. Toyota corollas are non interferance engines. Fords with a sohc 2.0 engine are non interferance. Hondas are interference so are Mitsubishi engines, I learned this the hard way.
YES!!! The pistons WILL contact the valves and destroy the engine if the timing is not correct.
The 2005 Chevy Cavalier is equipped with the 2.2L Ecotec engine, which is a non-interference engine. This means that if the timing belt were to fail, the pistons would not collide with the valves, preventing significant engine damage. Therefore, while it’s still important to maintain the timing components, a failure won't result in catastrophic consequences for the engine.
Interference engine.

Yes it does if the belt breaks you will most likely need a new engine, because the valves will be bent up.
