yes probably true, that's a common failure mode for the belt. It only takes about 3-4 teeth to shear. Please let me know if you have more questions.

For the carb???? Try spraying some Carb and injector cleaner on it.....Or the spring might be wore out

your throttel cable could be bad. They sell a universal one at your auto parts store for 20.00
or your carb is gummed up

A bad belt maybe, try silicon gel not spray. check for a bad pulley, or alternator, power steering or idler.
Take belt of and spin each pulley by hand and see if its stiff or make noise. if you find one this way repalce it.

If there is proper add on kit available , it becomes easy to fix it provided that it matches with the existing unit.
It can be done in a day, to add on the fittings , giving the vacuum feed and bleeding off.
But all the wheel cylinders must be checked when the efficiency is improved.

If you are losing brake fluid you still have a leak in the system, if not then take it into a garage and have it pressure bled.

if the battery holds the charge for a day or 2 wile you drive the car normally then you should check your alternator live the car 2 or 3 days after the battery was charged and check if it starts and run if it does run it another 2 or 3 days and see if the battery dies if it dies most likely your alternator is bad, your mechanic can test it with in 3 minutes to see if it is the alternator or the battery

probably need air in shocks.if they are original,i would replace.

need to know if 2.2 or 2.5 if 2.5 need to know if turbo, i would get the alternator checked because the voltage regulator is in alternator not computer, just cause new alternator doesn't mean good, have it checked out

CHECK FUEL PUMP FUSE LOCATED BEHIND THE STEERING COLUMN ABOVE THE HOOD LATCH LEVER.IF FUSE GOOD REPLACE THE AUTO SHUTDOWN RELAY LOCATED ON INNER FENDER PANEL NEAR THE BATTERY.IF ALL IS GOOD SCAN CAR FOR ECM FAULT CODES.

your ecm is bad as the regulator is built in its not stopping the alternator from charging it should be on the driver fender under the hood its a common issue either charges too much or not at all

either a broken timing belt or a bad hall sensor in dist,

You're fuse box is located under the dash, left of the
steering colum. There is also a chime module located
under the dash, to the left of the glove comp.
Also, I believe the chimes share a fuse with the brake
lights. Hope this helps.

its possible to get two bad master cylinders,booster is ok,if it was bad it would be hard to push the pedal down,all it does is assist,bench bleed the M C before you put it on the car,then start bleeding wheel cylinders starting at the farthest away from MC

The starter is located on the bottom of the engine, where the engine and transmission meet. It is on the side of the engine closest to the front of the car. The easiest way to find it is to follow the positive battery cable, as it goes directly from the battery to the starter solenoid.

Needs fluid or transmission.

1. For vehicles with A/C and solid mount compressors, install the solid mount compressor bracket as follows:
   1. Position the spacer onto the stud, then install the bracket on the front (2 nut) mounting stud and slide the bracket over the timing belt cover into position.
   2. Loosen the assembly bracket-to-engine fasteners (numbered 1 through 7-refer to the accompanying illustration).
   
   

WARNING The bracket fasteners must be tightened in the proper sequence and to the specified torque values.

1. Tighten the fasteners in the following sequence: 1) bolt 1 to 30 inch lbs. (3.3 Nm), 2) nut 2 and bolt 3 to 40 ft. lbs. (54 Nm), 3) bolts 1, 4 and 5 to 40 ft. lbs. (54 Nm), 4) bolts 6 and 7 to 40 ft. lbs. (54 Nm).
2. Install the alternator and compressor to the bracket. Tighten the compressor mounting bolts to 40 ft. lbs. (54 Nm).

If the headlights wont turn off when the engine is turned off you more than likely have a problem with the switch in your steering column that allows you to turn them on or off or turn them to bright or dim. If your car is fitted with a kill switch that when the car is off the lights will automatically turn off then it may need replacing. It is best to get it checked, this is not something i would advise you trying to fix by yourself.
