This is a popular question because parents are concerned about the quality of their children's education. They want to make sure that the materials they purchase will be accepted by the state, public school system or colleges.

They have a timing chain instead of a timing belt though, I've never seen or heard of a timing chain breaking on a 3.3/3.8 and causing any valve damage.sprinkles08, Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep master tech.Category: Dodge.xpert: sprinkles08 replied 4 years ago.

I heard both from a lot of people. Is my 2001 Kia Sportage limited 2.0 DOHC an interference engine? I'm asking because the timing belt recently broke and i'm trying to plan what to expect with the reapir. The mechanic that looked at the kia first said it was an interference engine. The dealer said it's not. Advance auto said it is. Another forum said it's not. Someone please give me a final answer.....
