Depends on mileage and if any damage was done to the valves when chain came off. If it was my car, I would rebuild the heads as well
lrodri911 answered 7 months ago
Yes, do the heads now otherwise you'll end up doing this all over again very soon

the car crank but wont stay on.i don't no wats wrong with it. do you thing the chain came off
lrodri911 answered 7 months ago
No, if the chain came off, it would't run at all. Check for check engine codes.
zukiebanzu answered 7 months ago
you will hear the noise that it want to crank but it wont say on. I don't no what is wrong with it. I need help
lrodri911 answered 7 months ago
If it doesn't run and you suspect its the chain, do a compression test
zukiebanzu answered 7 months ago
it is not running. I just need it to crank.is like you will hear the crank it want to start but it will not stay on
lrodri911 answered 7 months ago
Ok, yeah that sounds like timing issue and it can be caused by a bad timing chain. Do a compression test to verify
lrodri911 answered 7 months ago
You go to your local auto parts store and buy or rent a compression tool. Remove spark plugs and thread compression tool in the spark plug hole, 1 at a time, crank engine for 5 seconds and see what pressure reads on each cylinder
