I have been tasked with repairing my B in L's 2008 Saturn Astra.
1.8 litre Ecotec engine.
Cam belt shredded.
Some sites say this an interferrence engine some not... I can see no evidence
of the valves having touched any piston.
The exhaust cam appears to have slipped about 270 degrees and there is NO
compression.
The question is...if there are no marks on the pistons can I be fairly
confident that the valves are okay and installing a new belt and resetting the
timing will be all that is needed?
