Hi everyone, I've read multiple threads about people having oil leaks by the timing belt area. And I know I had one for a while now. My question/problem, is that the other day driving, I snapped my timing belt. Originally I thought something had seized up for the timing belt to just snap, since it wasn't shredded or anything else. All pulleys and gears rotate fully and nothing gets stuck. Is it possible that from the oil leak I had, the belt got weaker and just decided to snap?
The belt and tensioner have less than 40k miles on it, and I am in the process of replacing the bent valves.
Thanks for all your info!
