driving home from work, im 4 blocks from house when i get to a stop sign. when i go again my motor stops and when i try to start it up only the starter is heard which brings me to conclusion that when i open the hood the timing belt snapped. i read that the 5a-fe are non- interference motors and after the belt snaps it kills the motor to prevent damage to the internals. is this true and of course i will check the inside... im just looking for relevance and good hopes!!

they are not interference motors. What brand of belt did you use?
