87 240 stalled @ spd, wont start....not fuel inj. 200 1987


Ok...thought I had a simple issue with the fuel inj. (pump relay, etc......you know the drill). Not so, I have a timing belt issue, exept I'm not sure that's all it is. Here's what I can see:

1. Motor turns fine, meaning when I turn ignition on.

2. Took timing belt cover off and turn ignition, cam and intermediate shaft wont turn, crankshaft does.

Questions.

1. Is this just a "simple" timing belt/timing issue that can be fixed by replacing the belt and accesories?

2. Could this be a ceased oil pump that shaved teeth off belt when locked and sent engine out of timing?

3. I understand this engine (non-turbo) is a non-intereference engine, am I correct? I hope this engine is not shot.....car has only 115k miles.

Any help would GREATLY appreciated, it will help me decide if this is some thing I want to handle myself or not.

Thanks for your help in advance!
