Help With Timing Belt
yesterday i was going to the beach and i had cruise set to 58. i started going down a small hill and i felt my car shake then when i tried to back up it wouldnt gain the speed back like its supposed to do. after i got up the hill it started shaking then i heard a snap or somethin. i put it in neutral and it cut off. thinking might be timing belt. any suggestions?

Very helpful
First pull off the timing cover or the valvecover - it should be on the drivers side of the engine.
If it isn't on, its snapped.
The next thing you want to do is pull the valve cover, and the head - and have it inspected for bent valves - and head warpage.
Next, you fix whatever is wrong - put the head and valvecover on - it might be a smart idea to take this time to put on new spark plugs or whatever. Get a new timing belt - and bounce.

how was that not helpful? If you take the valve cover off and the belt isnt there it broke.....i didnt know i had to tell the exact location and everything. if you dont know where it is then might as well not even begin try to fix it.

Re: (aRaBiAn RiCe)
yeah i was in 5th gear and it has the h23 in it with around 166,000 miles so yeah id say it was about time for a new one cause i have no idea when it was last changed. im hoping i can buy me a new belt myself and put it on without having to get a valve job and head work and all that crap.
