I have broken a timing belt before, belive me you will know if you do. The starter spins real fast, like there is no compression. Having a 98, you have a non-interference engine, meaning if the timing belt broke your engine valves won't hit the pistons.

To jharris2, yes I still change the oil and dispose of it properly, change plugs, even big things like water pump, CV joints, starters, alternaters, but with cars getting more compicated I find it harder to find the problem.
