If a timing belt brakes on a fiat 1108 fire engine what damage will it do?

Its a safe engine so no damage will be done..just fit another belt and tensioner and away you go.. This is a non interference engine so if the timing belt snaps, the only damage is the belt itself. This means that you can fit a new belt, time the engine and continue

Will valves bend on 03 Sienna when timing belt breaks?

Yes. 03 Sienna should have a VVTI engine ( a 1MZ FE with vvti ) which is an interference engine and the valves will hit the piston if it snaps at higher RPM. Pre 01 Siennas have non VVTI 1MZ FE motors, and those are non-interference, therefore safe.

Do the valves on a Ford Contour get messed up when the timing belt breaks?

From what I've seen on the web and in my Haynes manual (I do Own a 95 Contour, 4-banger) The Zetec engine is a non-interference engine. Meaning you won't wreck the engine's head if the timing belt goes... But, just to be on the safe side, have it replaced. When they had to do my water pump (driven by the timing belt), I had them change the belt, along with the tensioner pulley, just to be on the safe side.


Is your 2001 Mercury Villager 3.3 Liter engine safe from valve damage if the timing belt breaks?
