When pulleys are in alignment in both planes - check with a straight edge laid against the face of the pulley - the belt shouldn't come off. By alignment in both planes it means the pulley grooves should be exactly inline with each other and the shafts the pulleys are mounted on should be perfectly parallel with each other - in addition the belt grooves should be in good condition and each pulley should be round and unbuckled. In the old days it was necessary to adjust pulley alignment with shims and as many pulleys were pressed steel, a few were egg-shaped by small amounts and usually due to rough handling, some were like a buckled bicycle wheel. It is many years since those checks had to be made as part of building an engine though whenever a belt-related problem is encountered it is time to dust off the old methods. When the belt runs true it doesn't come off but there is another reason why a belt doesn't run true and that is belt chatter that is caused by a defective torsional vibration damper or crankshaft harmonic damper...

Your water pump is driven by your timing belt which should be changed at same time unless it was done recently. If your still thinking of doing it, stop in at local parts store for info on what's involved, parts prices etc., and decide from there. I believe some even give you a step by step print out now too.

Depends on what you mean by rubbing on wheel well? if the wheel is bent inwards, so when the steering is set straight ahead, the damaged wheel is angled inwards or outwards then the tracking arm is bent! if the wheel well has dropped on the damaged side then it probably is the suspension!

Double check you have connected all wires to battery and that it is connected the correct way round

You have a faulty body ground either loose or corroded. Find every body ground you can and clean and tighten them all.

Vapor lock or scale, would be my guess.

when you press the brake pedal the brake master cylinder vacuum booster takes vacuum away from the engine and that slows the idle speed just enough to trigger the low pressure oil light. Pull the oil pressure sending unit out and hook up an oil pressure test gage, if the pressure is above 15 PSI hot engine idle in drive replace the oil pressure sending unit.

run the fault codes . indices that the ambient temp /baro sensors are not working and the ECm is not getting the signal to increase the fuel requirement ( same as pulling on the choke m)
