2002 Daewoo Lanos Engine Type

If this is an "interference" engine and the belt broke while running you may have major engine damage. If non-interference, buy shop manual to give all details and torque values for this very important procedure.

hi, just letting you know my timing belt just went on my daewoo lanos. unfortunately it seems in a daewoo lanos that when the timing belt goes, it can do damage to one of the valves. mine is in at the mechanics and i am still hoping that it hasnt done any damage. i was also told that if you have replaced the timing belt and the car still wont start it has definitely done damage to a valve. sorry to give you the bad news!!

When a timing belt breaks it is likely to cause engine damage. You will most likely need to replace the engine head. ($700-$1000 parts & labour))

Yes, there can be more problems! I've had the following -

(1) starter motor - this is easily replaced and is fairly cheap to get a 2nd hand one - approx $80 for the motor

(2) crank angle sensor & coil - approx $500 parts & labour

Yes. I think. A lot of cars have the water pump under the timing cover and you change the pump when you change the timing belt. They usually don't seize though, they just leak. Did you run it after it broke? How long before the engine quit? Did it start knocking? When you go to change the belt, look for a broken cam, or other damage that the broken belt would have caused. Some engines are free running, meaning they will turn over no problem when the belt goes, other engines are intermittent, meaning the valves hit the tops of the pistons and cause considerable damage. Find out before you go too far. Hope this helps.

if timing belt snapped while engine was running valves are bent.number 1 cylinder is closest to these pulleys(gears).
the timing marks are for twin

Well, broken timing belt causes valves to break, valves can be changed but if your mechanic wants to change whole engine then you have to change a mechanic. I had broken timing belts on few cars and never needed to change whole engine. Unless second hand engine is cheaper then new valves for it.

I hope that it should serve you

Call the dealer and tell him your engine size, V6, 4cyl etc. ask if the engine is free wheeling when the cam belt breaks, most are these days except Mitsubishi's 4 cylinders.

How do you allign the timing belt?
