----------------------------------

First telltale sign on a '91 might be red rust coating the inside of the
distributor cap. The bearing goes bad and starts leaking dust. When it
seizes, the timing belt breaks and you get a different car.

How often do you use injector cleaner? Might just be a sticking injector
too.
