If the timing belt skips a tooth on the gears, but doesn't break, is it enough to damage any valves?

 

The answer is ... maybe. Depending on where in the stroke the belt slipped, you could have had some valve to valve contact. Even just a small nick is enough to cause issues. Have a leak down test done to see if all the valves are sealing properly. Good luck.

 

fix the timing and get a new belt is what i would to homefully you didnt drop a vavle my friends motor did this and the shit was gone to hell

 

Thanks for you help, I swapped the belt, tensioner, and water pump and she's running great again, lucky for me it only jumped when i was stopped at a light at idle

 

man your the luckiest person in the world!!
