  • timing belt life???

    some time ago i fount a 92 ford escort for 100 bucks cause the guy said the timing belt broke and the engine was wreaked beyond repair.
    well!!!
    boy was he wrong ...
    i put in a 14 dollar belt and drove that car for 3 years until i sold it for 3 grand to a kid that to this day is still trying to kill it.
    MY QUESTION IS THIS????
    what happens to a festy if the belt snaps????
    valve damage???
    or do they not hit???

    B series = non-interference head. So unless you break a valve,piston,spark plug; it will be o.k.

      It's very difficult to destroy the B3 - believe me, I've tried. :wink:

      Very reliable cars that nobody thought would last this long.
