Need to know if a 1997 Chevy S-10 2.2 4cyl. is an interference engine. Looking at one for sale cheap, owner says it needs timing belt ( I believe it's a chain ) the truck is nice with no rust and 120,000 miles, so it would make a great parts chaser! Craig

No I don't think this is a interference motor. Also I think it dose have a belt.

These are good questions for the dealership, the service counter guys can look it up and even spit out the part # and bel or chain info at no cost to you, use the phone and save your gas.

Good luck !!

It shows a chain and doesn't mention interferrence or not in this instruction guide. Chains rarely break off clean like a belt can but would likely jump a tooth or more till it wouldn't run before interferrence occured if it was,
