B16F engine - interference or not?
As title suggests,
My brother has my 1994/M reg 440 with the B16F 1.6i. We haven't had the car long, and thus the history is a bit of a grey area. He has just told me that the timing belt has gone. Are these engines interference or not? Thanks in advance |
In the absence of knowing how to edit, I thought I'd add - car was sat idling, and cut out. He pushed car to the side of the road (luckily outside his house) and took belt cover off and it was gone. Therefore car wasn't being hammered down the motorway at 70+ when it went. Still a risk of bent valves?

Pretty sure that they are an interference engine, if it snapped at idling speed he may have got lucky, if he's good with the spanners i'd put another one on and see what happens.
