whether the volvo engine is interference 200

That Gates chart is a challenge as it is the "most" accurate guide out there so folks tend to think it is gospel.

The B230F is a non-interference engine period.

The Protege is most likely non-interference depending on which engine you have an if it is a US spec. '99 us just far enough back that you guys might have gotten a higher compress version of the same. The 1.8L in US trim was non-interference but not sure about 1.6L. My wife's 2.0L in her (long gone) 2003 Protege was also non-interference.
