SOURCE: 1994 1.9 the timing belt broke.did it bend the valves.

For what it's worth, my info tells me it's a non-interference engine, so your o.k. but I will double check that & get back to you.

SOURCE: can you bend valves when belt brakes

Yes you can bend valves when the timing belt breaks. Without knowing the car call your dealer up and ask them if this is a problem for your year and make a model car. European and Japanese cars and also high performance cars are more likely to have this problem. But not all cars for instance most Ford escorts do not have valve interference problems. But if you replace the timing belt and the car Mises or backfires you probably have a bent valve. And you would need a valve job that this point. Good luck.

My 2011 ford fiesta serpentine belt broke thru everything outta place I went in retimed it new cam and crank shaft sensors new knock sensors new throttle body and sensors and I few relays and fuses my car...

The serpentine belt has no bearing on the camshaft timing, so my guess is that you mistimed the camshaft timing for no reason.

The serpentine belt is external and is driven by the crankshaft and runs the alternator, the A/C, Steering Pump and water pump.

If your CAMSHAFT belt broke, the Ford Fiesta has an interference engine, so you have bent valves and damaged pistons.

Do the valves alwase get bent on a v6 petrol freelander wen the cam belt brakes

Hi Barry:
The odds are exceedingly high that the answer would be yes.
Valve clearances from the pistons are related to the position of the piston in relationship to TDC. If the valves are open when the poston is at TDC they will come into contact and damage can and probably will result.
This is definitely a NOT GOOD situation.
Best of luck.

Will the timing belt mess up the engine

Yes, if it brakes it will most likely bend the valves in the head as it is an interference engine.

An "interference" engine (one that lacks sufficient clearance between the valves and pistons if the cam stops turning), the result can be one or more bent valves (usually intake valves), and possibly a broken piston.

If the cam belt breaks whats the worst case senario

the worst that could happen is that it will bend every valve in the head. it's as repairable as a blown head gasket, with the additional cost of new valves, seals, and perhaps valve guides.

On the 960 volvo if i broke atimeing belt while driveing dont the pistons come up as far as the crank will let it and the valves stop where they are at if not why dont the pistons hit the valves while its...

If the belt is turning the bottom and top end in time,no problem.Break a belt and the top end stops with the some valves open and some closed,meantime the bottom end keeps going around and around and the pistons up and down until the engine not only quits but continues until the vehicle is either put in neutral or until it comes to a stop,either way the damage is dune with-in the first seconds of the belt breaking,sorry for the news but this is true of all overhead valve engines.

If the cam belt breaks does it damage the engine or will the motor just stop

depends if the valves has hydraulic valve lashes. if not, it will definitely cause damage to your engine. if the timing belt breaks it will leave the valves open and the pistons will rise and impact those valves which can bend the valves and also ur cam.
