lakeville,
ok i've been havin a lot of problems latley but here's what happened this time i was drivenalong andcame up to a red light and i pushed the clutch in and it died and it wouldn't start so i pulled over and got towed home charge the battery and it started fine so i took it for a test drive and it drove. but not very good and as soon as the engine got warm it died agian and I took a look agian and the engine and there was oil all over the timing belt and it was losing tons of oil and it seems to be coming from down were all the belts are. so i was wondering if anyone could help me out with finding out whats wrong and maybe how i could fix it.

Thanks

-Remove all the belts, 3 of them if your car has AC, remove the timing belt cover, the cover come off easier from the bottom, remove driver side tire, clean the motor with some degreaser and water, add oil if it's low, start the motor, motor will start without the water pump and alternator hook up if your battery is good, it'll trip an idiot light, and watch the temp gauge, shut it off if it get hot, watch where the oil is leaking from.

-There're oil seals behind those pullies and sprockets. good luck.
