....The motor cranks and all but it won't start running....??? So could this be my timing belt??? or could it be something else???

pls. help me peoples

i dont think it would crank if the timing belt broke, look on the side of the engine and see if you see it

 

what do i look for???

look on the right side of the engine, you might still have the plastic cover over the timing belt. just to look and see if you see it on the floor. Check if some1 can give you a jump

the engine would still crank if you broke the timming belt. Just pull the valve cover off and look to see if the belts there on the driver side....Mike

 

Perhaps a little easier: Open up the oil filler cap and see if you have some rocker movement...or you could take off the distributor cap and see if the rotor is moving.

I double check with the rotor also. Hand crank it.

 

for all thanks peoples

 

I have found the problem.....the belt had lost it's teeth.....DAMN IT!!!!
