More likely to be failing crank sensor, although not sure if that would explain the cruise...

You only know your cam belt has been changed if you've done it yourself, or have documented proof that it's been done.

it sounds like you have various unrelated problems, each one would need to be looked into individually, a cam belt would not cause the symptoms you are describing, Thats nt to say its not due though.

You are looking at 75ish for a gates kit plus post, try ebay I got mine there, just make sure its a reputable seller with a warranty.
