Posts: 44 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0  | 1.9D timing belt snapped Hi, I am Ryan from Malta and i just bought a 1.9D with snapped timing belt. I just opened the engine and it seems like only one valve slightly hit a piston. I cannot push the pistond down by hand but i can rotate the crack using a spanner quite easily. Should i open the bottem end? Thanks Ryan
