Are you sure it was timing belt? If so. When you crank the engine, does it turn kinda fast without making a wump wump sound? When the timing belt broke it may have done some hidden damage. Its possible it may have bent the valve stems by piston hitting them because the timing to move them was off. You need to perform a compression test on all cylinders. Borrow or rent a compression gauge from an auto parts store. They will tell you how to use it, what to look for. If compression is bad, you may have to remove the cylinder head and have a valve job done. Except that you need to replace some of the valves. This calls for some skill or at least good apptitude in mechanics. OR somthing did not go right with the timing belt install.. Thats all I can do for you now. Check the compression. Good luck.
Hi,
That sound somewhat a big prob!
First check the timing points for the timing belt pulley, if it is really on timed marks.
Did you broke the belt while speeding or running? If that happens better bring the car to the nearest garage and have them check and pressure test the cylinder in each one. The in/exhaust valve might have been bent, and it will have to be replace.
Hope that answered your problem.
Thanks for asking FixYa!
