ok well i took my car into the shop because i heard a strange rubbing noise from the right side of the engine. i thought it was something rubbing on the timing belt but no one else belived me. There was also a little shread of a belt that flew out of the timming belt area. so i tow it to the mechanic and he calls me 4 hours later and tells me the sound is gone. and everything is good. we run it for 10 mins and ifs fine. I get about 3 blocks away at a red light and i hear a metal on metal sound.(almost like a bad bearing or something) and then the car dies. i try to start it and it back fires and dies. then after trying one more time the engine doent turn over but when i try the t belt spins. which is no compression (i think)
now the balance shaft belt is all shreaded up and in half. I really hope that my valves are not bent. Any other ideas on what it could be??? Thanks
