It is a NON-interferencene. All Toyota products with timing belts are non-interference. All Toyota products from 1998 on. with timing chains, are interference engines..

    This info may be reversed and there are exceptions even then. i.e., 09 Sienna - chain/non-interference

If the timing belt were to break on my 1995 Toyota Rav4 2 liter petrol, would it cause the pistons to hit the valves. Or is it non interverannce.??

its best not to take the chance as engine could of been scimed years ago. and it will take out the valves more if it has. even in a non interference engine it will cause a lot of damage if going above 2.000 revs.

DOES MY HYDUNDI HAVE A ZERO CLEARENCE ON THE MOTER

engine size/capacity required ?? all the one's I've seen upto now would damage the engine if belt snapped. You need to know if yours is a non-interference type ie the valves do not intefere with the tops of the pistons at any point in an engine revolution.

I have a 96 dodge caravan with a 2.4 motor is this non interference or interference?

There are very few engines that are non interference ( from my data books regarding timing belts and chains) that you will have an interference engine. It relates to the fact that the valves will interfere (hit) with the pistons in the event of belt/chain failure
