Ah, i get yah. So the valves hit the piston, not the other way around. You said the pistons were hitting the valves.

Bassicly the crank stops almost instantly and the inertia in the cams causes them to keep turning, thus stretching the timing belt and causing what ever cylinder at/near tdc's valves to hit the piston?

Or am i off again? And I am a gifted student damn it :fawk:
