Problem for Kia 2003 Spectra
Timing belt is broken, how to tell damage w/o teardown
By bluetiger676 on Oct 11, 2009
I suspected the timing belt broke, upon inspection, found the break and was wondering the best way to determine if there is any internal damage to the engine without tearing it completely apart.

If you are very lucky, you might avoid rebuilding the head. However, odds are that this is what you are facing.
Good luck with it. I'll keep good thoughts for ya. Let me know what you find.
