Does anyone know if a 1999 Toyota Tacoma PreRunner has a non-interference engine or not? I've looked all over the place and can't seem to find that info!

Thanks, in advance for any help on this.

See this chart for your 1999 Toyota Tacoma PreRunner (I don't know which engine your vehicle has).
If the timing belt breaks on a non-interference design, there is enough clearance between the pistons and valves to prevent damaging contact. An interference design does not have sufficient clearance between those parts and engine damage would result from a broken timing belt.

It is generally recommended that the belt be changed at 60,000 mile intervals.

See this page for other makes and models.

I hope this is of some help!

Dwight
