Replace the belt and see if that resolves any issues with the car

make sure the engine rotates without resistance if there is a lot then the head will have to be removed to check the valves for bending otherwise try replacing the belt
not yet changed the belt, and it starts first time etc, just it runs on when you turn it off, has been doing it for a few wks etc. gunna try and up load the short vid of it .
