[bmw] Engine gone???
Hi,
1983 bmw 520i,
Cruising down the road, engine cuts out, funny noise trying to start,
noticed what appears to be a timing belt???? At the front of the engine
- inside metal front cover, just in front of rocker cover - appears to
be loose on cogg.
Engine won't start and acts as if there is no compression.
Is this a timming belt failure?
Or
Something else?
If timing belt, then how hard to fix? and may this have damaged other
areas inside the engine when it broke?
Clueless & looking for answers
Regards,
Bruce
