You can go to http://www.gates.com/part_locator/index.cfm?location_id=3598 and enter any vehicle to find out if it has an "interference engine" i.e. one that destroys the cylinders if the timing belt breaks.
Toyotas are generally not and the 91 Celica isn't. Honds generally are.
Toyota celica 2003 broke a timing belt , the motor for this car will make damage some internal part like bending the valves or not?
The starter relay on an 86 Toyota Celica is used to provide power to the starter when the engine is cranked. It also prevents damage as a result of overheating or overdraw.
will a broken drive belt damage the motor of a 2006 Toyota Tacoma 4 cylinder truck
Almost certainly. The timing belt being damaged or broken can cause a number of different problems. I know in my 86 celica sx the result of a faulty/ old timing belt was a piston snapping off at the control rod, it was warped and bent because of wrong timing. i suggest if u have a broken/old/damaged timing belt you do not drive it till u get it replaced. Also see your mechanic for more advice
I don't believe so , the 1.6 liter and 1.8 liter engines in a 1996 Toyota Corolla are NOT interference engines
it cam if cam gear falls/snaps off but it is not a interferance motor
If it breaks while the engine is runnIng, yes. It can damage the valve train
it is only ok to drive if it a slow drip. If it is a constant stream damage to the pump will result.
Nope, no damage... other than a tow bill ; )
brain damage, neck damage, broken bones and even death
Every 60,000 miles, according to both corroborating online sources cited below, http://www.familycar.com/carcare/GatesFrame.htm http://autorepair.about.com/od/glossary/ss/timin-belt-inf2_7.htm However, since the 96 Celica has a non-interference engine*, a broken timing belt will not damage your engine as it would on these makes and models of Toyotas: TOYOTA 1986-95 1.5L Tercel 1981-83 2.2L Pickup 1984-87 2.4L Pickup 1982-88 2.8L Celica Cressida 1987-94 3.0L 4-Runner http://www.rebuiltautoengines.com/toyota-celica-articles.html So unless you were having other problems, your worst case scenario is the car would just stop running and you would have to get it towed in to get the timing belt replaced. But if you're having the timing belt replaced, or if your having any kind of an oil leak, you might want to price having these items addressed because the the extra labor cost should be negligible since they would already be in there replacing the timing belt.

An interference design does not have sufficient clearance between those parts and engine damage would result from a broken timing belt.
