Is this an interference engine, please? I don't think so, but it has been 10 years since I have done a belt on one of these. Thanks

 

you're safe!

 

Yes it is so when the belt broke you most likely bent a few valves. You could either put on a new belt and then do a compression test or pull the cam cover and cam and pump compressed air into each cylinder and see if it holds pressure. Use a leak down tester to do this.

 

The B230F engines used in the 240's are non-interference. Look at other posts on this forum where the belt has broke.

 

Single cam engines are non-interference - double cam engines are interference.

 

Sorry wrong block.

 

Thanks Everyone! I am driving 100 miles to put a new belt, tensioner, and waterpump on. I didn't wat to do it out in her driveway at 20 degrees if I would have to deal with bent valves, and pulling the head.
