Ii changend the timing belt engine locked up - Engines & Components for Saturn Astra

wow no year, ?
no engine size stated. there are 5 engines opted day one.
GM and omg Daewoo junk.? my guess 2.0L gas
the cam belt must not be run for 100k miles, are you?
it is a TUNEUP part (called a listed Service point)"critical too"
it must not jump.
but that depends on what jump means? and where eyes are looking (mid span belt or top edge of cam wheel?????????)
all cams have bias (turn one by and and feel that 1 time)
and this bias causes the belt mid span to bounce.
just a bit. (even a new car)
when you install a new belt, the belt is tensioned to a SPEC.
(just one step in many )
and if at SPEC, the bounce is minimized! (dont skip steps and win)
and if allowed to bounce too much (internal belt damage)
then it will jump a cog. and engine will then run like crap.(or boom, bent head valves.)
or worse blow up. (interference engines do that)
and sure stall. (stalling is the least of all this)

so, hang a timing light on it.
is the timing way retarded? yes, then belt has slipped.

lineup (eng)
1.4 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.6 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.8 L Family II I4 (petrol)
2.0 L Family II I4 (petrol) most common in USA.
2.0 L RA 420 I4 (diesel)

the 2.0L gas is INTERFERENCE, so ignoring the belt can be very very costly mistake.. as all are.....

which of 6 engines is it? we cant ever guess this. and nobody ever post that. oddly
FSM quote: 2.0L USA, only.

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the Precautions Section.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Drain the cooling system into a suitable container and tighten the drain plug.
4. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Timing belt
   • Timing belt tension roller retaining bolt
   • Timing belt tension roller
   • Water pump mounting bolts
   • Water pump from engine block
   • Ring seal from the water pump

id, place wood block on the front of head.
and pry the pulley to the front, hard,
or rad out? use slide hammer to the pulley, last resort.


what engine:????? note there are two, 2 liter engines.

1.4 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.6 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.8 L Family II I4 (petrol)
2.0 L Family II I4 (petrol)
2.0 L RA 420 I4 (diesel)

which of 5+engines is it?
we can not guess that.
is it accessory belt or cam belt, cant guess that either.
at least these>?

1.4 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.6 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.8 L Family II I4 (petrol)
2.0 L Family II I4 (petrol)
2.0 L RA 420 I4 (diesel)

the answer was on alldata.com USA, oops no country stated (FAIL)
and
at
https://suzukipitstopplus.com/Products/1027-2004-forenza-service-manual.aspx

all the time, every day, just look.

08 Daewoo Lacetti rebuilt dodge ,ugh...
05 actual.
which engine, we have like 100000 post now , the same and not one with an engine stated. or country/
in usa, ? open hood see USA EPA sticker, it tells the engine type.
engines are options.

1.4 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.6 L E-TEC I4 (petrol)
1.8 L Family II I4 (petrol)
2.0 L Family II I4 (petrol)
2.0 L RA 420 I4 (diesel)

Do you mean the timing belt, or the serpentine belt ?
The serpentine belt could lock up the engine if one of the pulleys was froze. Sometimes the alternator or power steering pump will lock up.
But if the belt is off the engine it would have no effect.

93 gt's dont have fuses for these, they have circuit breakers. I had the same problem with my 93 Gt it ended up being a faulty alarm brain that had screwed everything up, I swapped out the alarm and it was fine after that.

sounds like you have a defective accessory drive belt or a locked up engine cooling fan clutch whioch causes the belt to slip, more so cold..

BMW recommends that the timing belt be changed every second Inspection ii, or every 4 years on cars that have low mileage. Most of the rest of the industry has timing belt changing intervals ranging from 40,000 miles to 60,000 miles. It is better to change the belt at a lower mileage than at a higher number.
The timing belt must be replaced every time the belt tensioner is loosened. Do not reinstall a used belt. Reusing a timing belt, even one with low mileage, is not worth the chance of having a belt break and damaging the engine.

Good luck.
