S80 timing belt(what are the odds)

Post by DBULL »

I'm looking at a 2000 non turbo s80 that stripped the timing belt while turning the engine with the starter (drove to the store ,cut engine off,went to restart).What are the odds of no bent valves.DBULL

There are some bent valves, at least two but likely a lot more.
