Hey guys sorry for such a basic boring question. I cant be bothered taking off my timing belt and spinning my crank to find out if B6's are interference engines or not, and the factory manual doesnt say.
Please enlighten me.
Thanks,
Dann

Low kms and a broken belt? Exactly how low are they? Should be good to 130K-160k kms or so..though Mazda recommends every 96k. Oil on the belt can cause a premature failure, so check to see if there is any oil seeping around the bottom of the front of the motor as a bad front main seal can put oil on the belt (this was why mine failed).
