Car Forum / Volvo Cars / July 2009240 timing belt
hi. if the timing belt broke, does the valves crush on the pistons? It's a curiosity > hi. > > if the timing belt broke, does the valves crush on the pistons? Yes. No. Maybe. What year, and what engine? > hi. > > if the timing belt broke, does the valves crush on the pistons? > > It's a curiosity No, not in any 240 sold in North America at least. Possible exceptions may be hot cam/higher compression versions in parts of Europe, but I'm told even the K cam does not cause valve interference. Either way you do not want the belt to fail, if it does the engine stops without warning and you are stuck.

Of course. But I read somewhere this and I look for a confirm. Thanks, Andrea. PS My car is a Volvo 240 SW B200F motor > James Sweet ha scritto: > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > PS My car is a Volvo 240 SW B200F motor B200F I don't know, we never got that on this continent, so I can't give you a definitive answer. Our 240s came with the B21, B23, or B230 series depending on the year. >> hi. >> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Either way you do not want the belt to fail, if it does the engine stops > without warning and you are stuck. She asked what if it failed stupid, can't you understand her question? You can't control it. Here is the straight answer: --------------- Your steering wheel will not work, you alternator stops charging, and you won't go very far with your car, it will stop running in 15 minutes, because all electrical loads take power off your 12V battery. >>> hi. >>> [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > won't go very far with your car, it will stop running in 15 minutes, > because all electrical loads take power off your 12V battery. He answered the question, and your answer is wrong. It won't last for 15mins, nothing will work from that point, what you are describing is if the accessory belt(s) fail not the timing belt. Without the timing belt the engine will not run and in come cases it will damage the engine if it fails while the engine is running. -- Tony >>>> hi. >>>> [quoted text clipped - 33 lines] > -- > Tony Really Tony balony? You idiots / liars must have sucked each other cocks for quite sometimes now. Go away you're no experts, you don't know sh.ts about car's mechanic or electrical system. I passed this type of problem before, that's why I share the truth. Why don't you disconnect your alternator output, and see how far your f.cking car can go, dumbass! > Really Tony balony?

Either you need professional help quickly for your personal problem or the prescribed doses need adjustment upwards. Hopefully you will finally get healthy again.

Well, Richard, you've clearly and unambiguously shown that you can't read and comprehend. You've also shown that your contribution to this newsgroup is likely to be useless and unnecessarily argumentative. The OP asked about a broken *timing* belt, you confused this with broken *drive* belt and- on top of it- insulted one of the most useful and helpful posters to this newsgroup. When your error was pointed out to you, you've just gone on the attack. So, buh-bye, dude. You're a jackass and now that I know it, I don't have to waste time reading your bullshit. Cheers! richard pretended : >>> hi. >>> [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > won't go very far with your car, it will stop running in 15 minutes, > because all electrical loads take power off your 12V battery. You answered what would happen if the fan belt to the alternator broke. The question was what would happen if the timing belt broke. Both answeres are correct. You just answered a question that wasn't asked. Who is the "stupid" one here? |
