timing belt replacement 200 1988

posted by  someone claiming to be mark czajka on  Thu Oct 11 05:41 CST 2001 [RELATED]



does anyone know if the 240gl engine, 1988, is an interference engine? i am coming up to the first 50,000 mile interval since i have owned this car and wonder how closely i need to follow the 50,000 mile recommendation. i would like to push it a bit beyond 50,000 before possibly changing water pump and timing belt together, but am i running the risk or ruining the valves in the even the belt breaks?

thanks,

mac
