What do you mean you cannot start the engine? Does the engine crank or does the starter spin the crankshaft?

Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

Did the timing belt come right off somehow? If so it would have to be replaced on exact location for valve timing. It shouldn't just fall off so easily so if it was stretched or couldn't hold tension that is a problem.

Not sure which engine this has or if an "interference" engine where valves will collide with pistons when valve timing is wrong for whatever reason so if that type (many are) this will be a major fix.

Quick search shows one available engine uses three timing belts - one up front and two at rear if that one would be quite involved to set it all right.

Is this, this type with a V6 engine?

Hope that picture shows..........
