hey tried search and nothing! i heard that all hondas have interference heads, is this true? my uncles d16 blew a timing belt with 100k miles on the car, is he screwed? thanks

no1 knows?

 

What you mean with interference heads?

 

interference heads will bend valves and all sorts of other bad things when they loose timing. I am not 100% sure but I think that hondas are interference motors. I would just pull the head off and check out the valve train. He might have gotten lucky.

 

I think you will be ok, I did the same thing on my old D16z6 and I was fine. I think it is kind of luck of the draw on a d series, B series wwill difinetly destroy the head.

 

couldi take off the valve cover and turn the timing sprocket by hand to see if I see any smashing? would that work?? any ideas
