I threw a serpintine belt today and have concerns about timing. Will the engine be out of time since it continued to run when the belt came off? Also, the alarm went off indicating high temp. Did I also grenade the the impelller and/or housing?
On a good note though, I was towed in by a DCB, so I guess their not all non-waving, tailgaters.

BTW, F-Tahoe in the afternoon!
No you did not put the motor out of timing. Timing is all gear realted. As far as the high temp indicated, I'm guessing you have a closed loop system. If so the only thing you did was stop pumping water, witch would give the high temp alarm. If if were me, I would replace the belt, put it back in the water and let it idle for a few minutes and read all my gauges. Of thats where I would start anyway.
