Message	if it snapped when the motor was idling? im sorry i suck at life. my thoughts are, when the belt snaps, all 4 cams snap to their closest resting positions, so all the valves will be closed. not to mention, the crank would immediately stop turning anyway. --.scubasteve.-- (Rebuild started: April 2004. estimated completion: sigh)
