If the timing chain breaks on my 1996 ford Taurus will it bend the valves too?
The car would not start if the chain had broken,pure nonsense
The plastic guides may be worn & the tensioners gunked up
Chains seldom break,belts break
Did your mechanic do a cylinder leak down test
The more I read questions on this site,the more blessed I feel,
that I never in 49 years, needed professional help,they don't
do much & very well at not much
The mechanic should have a data base to know if it is an
interference motor,not tell a customer things that upset you
& speculate
Look up the info & test,do something positive,like actually
road test a car with the customer driving
If they don't do that I would run
