Yeah so the guy I dropped my car off STILL has my car.. Its OK, Ive been taking the bus to school and stuff. But he says that the timing belt didn't actually break, it just got so stretched out it stopped operating correctly. He is blaming this on a faulty repairjob on the water pump. Must've been before I owned the car, and I bought it with only 48,000 on it. Something about how a spring on the tensioner was missing or something. Anyways, hopefully it will be fixed tomorrow. I think I'm looking at $500+ like you other guys. I will let you know more about what exactly went wrong, he and the people at the local Ford evidently are puzzled by how it failed.
