cam belt snapped

[Polish]

its been one of days on the way home my cambelt snapped on my s2 (3b) was doing about 10 mph what in the likely hood of doing the valves/pistons etc my own fault should have changed it i know

Do a compression check, but there is unfortunately a good chance of valve damage.
How many miles on the belt?

[Polish]

not sure when belt last changed will remove the covers tommorow and replace the belt cross everything and do a compression check

I would say about 99.99% you have at least 2 bent valves if not more.......

[Polish]

could cope with just 2 and its an excuse to port the head whilst its off

Not good,i feel for you but look on the bright side,i doubt it's as bad as mine were when the crank sprocket went for a poo:

I bent 10,i was just about to dust someone in 3rd gear at about 4k rpm,they were so badly bent that the car wouldn't turn over,in fact i had to carefully knock them straight(er) before i could get the valve spring compressor to work and get them out
Just make sure you replace the crank sprocket aswell as the belt/tensioner
Good luck sorting it out

My guess is the belt has not snapped but the crankshaft sprocket woodruf key has failed and upset the timing.

Dont really hear of many belts snapping?

Hope all goes well.

Ho yes you do btdt, head of and bent valves I am afraid.

the S2 I had came with a snapped crank sprocket, took the head off. And there was no damage at all. Also know a guy that had the same with a 7A and also had zero damage

Hopefully you'll be as lucky
