16v quit while driving

[haygood at myway.com (Brian Haygood)]

The timing belt is quite loose.  It must have jumped a tooth or three.  I hope it didn't jump far enough to cause some interference problems, but it sounds normal when turning over, so it will likely be alright.  Anyway, you got it on your first guess!

I let off the throttle and it just konked out.  Turns over and has spark.  I hear the fuel pump (I think that's what I hear) when I first turn the key.  Not out of gas.  Car has a couple of charging glitches but has always run very well.  It had been sitting for a couple of weeks or less.
