I'm thinking it might be the computer or the cam sensor. Anyone out there that has had this problem? I can't even buy a manual, the auto parts store can't get one.

If yes the timing belt is broken. But even if it cranks normal I would still check it. It might have jumped a cog or two but not break. Remove the screws from the upper timing belt cover and carefully pry it back and check to see if the belt is OK. 1998 Sportage - Gone. 2004 Honda Civic Coupe. 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara - She got it.
