belt broke--now what need options
ok so i have a 93 civic ex that was bought in 95 with 41,000- on it had the timing belt and water pump changed at around 110k now i'm sittin at around 175k and it broke on the freeway doing about 65mph--had it towed guy says around 1000 or more--i would say that for the most part putting on another belt would not scare me away provided with detailed instruction (i've done both axles--and have done a frame up resto on an old jeep cj5)--should i take the head off and check the valves first--or should i re-time and put the belt on and see what happens--i don't think i want to put over a grand in the car on the other hand it has always been a very good car with no major problems--and ran great--i always changed fluids and what not regularly--just trying to way my options now that what is not suppose to happen has happened---thanks for any help or suggestions
