On Saturday my Forester started and then shut down. On trying to restart it cranked but did not start. The cranking sounded very free as if there was no compression which led to suspecting that the timing belt had broken. The belt was inspected and was intact, timing marks were all aligned.
Bent valve has been suspected, but a bent valve usually occurs when the timing belt breaks and the timing is out.
What could be possible cause for this problem.
