[Vwdiesel] Poop!

I'm glad it's not T-belt
but my BEW 1.9 actually did break the t-belt and then it did crank 3x faster
than normal.
With no noise it would just spin fast, no compression; bent EVERY valve
(slightly)

 That's the one.  It got a new belt since condition was unknown and it had
about 70K.  Now has another 50K on it, which got me to wondering about
the belt change interval.  Forgot if it's 40K or 60K on these.  At least I
now
know it's not a broken belt.  Whew!
