Engine Mechanical problem
1990 Geo Storm 4 cyl
----------------------------------------------------------------
Is the storm engine a "non-interfreance type"? Does a broken timing belt cause engine damage, to valves, pistons?

your answer is yes. with a broken timing belt when you try to turn over the engins the pistons could come up when the valves are open hitting the valves and damaging them.
