I bought this 1995 Montero SR. The previous owner said the timing belt was replaced recently (no receipts). I don't really trust the guy. Sooo....

If the timing belt breaks... Will the lower end of the motor pistons/rings be damaged? I know the valves would get destroyed and heads would need to be rebuilt. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

If the butterfly valve breaks... How much of the engine will be damaged?

Thanks for your input. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
