Hooray, chain driven timing is what I had hoped to hear!
Belt driven timing makes me nervous, and is a large maintenance expense that really shouldn't exist. I was looking at some photos that a Volvo owner posted that showed the damaged valve train (and maybe pistons as well but I couldn't tell by the photos) when the timing belt lets go prematurely before the required replacement milage. Not pretty! Anyway that is good to know. Thanks for the good news!
