timing problem, belt broke.
I was on my way home from work doing 65 MPH when my car died. I got a tow home and found out my belt broke.
I replaced the belt and it ran but poorly. I did a compression test and #2 cylinder had nothing. All other 3 had right at 155 LBS. I think I bent some valves. Any thoughts?
I do most of my own work and do not want to spend a ton of money but am thinking $350.00 to check and fix the head and new gaskets.

Took the head off and took it to the machine shop. Hope to hear something soon. It is a 1991 with 225,000 miles on it but I just can not let it die. Thanks for the reply.
got a call from the shop and they told me that I have 2 bent intake and 2 bent exhaust valves. Will be about 300>00 to fix the head. I think it is well worth it as I believe the car has another 100,000 miles left in it.
