    I got lucky! timing belt broke

    i had just gotten some gas to go up to nc and about 10 miles after i left car just cut off was the most silence i have heard n a while lol..so i pulled off to the side n i knew what it was lol just called AAA n took it to my work and today i changed the belt and crossed my fingers sure enough i started it right up and compression is a ok! it actually runs better i think it had gotten stretched vac at idle is at 24 and steady at idle heres some pics



    the belt was totaly destroyed it was coiled around the crank sprocket like a snake lol! it bent my crank shaft position sensor and the belt retainer lol
    b4 u guys start flaming i bought the cheap one bc i thought i was going to have to spend money on a valves i wanted to c if it was messed up first we all arent made of money

                        Yeah his is DOHC. You can see the cam gears in the pick with the VC off. Glad it didn't turn out worse for you man.
