The 2.5 liter 4 cylinder engine in a 2000 Subaru Outback is an interference engine ( according to Gates , they make timing belts etc. )
If the engine is an interference type serious engine damage will result. If engine is noninterference type it will just stop.
Interference.Interference.
no it is not an interference engine
I believe all modern Toyota's have non-interference type engines, but the Echo does not have a timing belt, it has a chain, and there is NO predefined replacement interval for the chain (hope it lasts for 300,000+ miles). This is one of the nice features of the Echo/Yaris.
