If car start then some times dont .it sound like fuel proplem.
if its timing belt it just wont start if slipped or broke or teeth broke
and it wont get better til you change it .you can damage the valves
if you keep starting it on the key if theres a fault with it

1996 plymouth breeze jumped timing after timing belt replaced ran at idle for 20 mins then stalled no start

check that the belt has not come off
it is doubtful that the belt will "jump" timing after 20 minutes of running so check for other failres

98 izzu hombre 4.3 battery went dead after a jump it wont start how to fix

The jump start may have blown you alternator or voltage regulator. If so, you have an inactive charging system. You must have a good battery for this to work, Disconnect the positive cable to the battery. Use a battery charger to slow charge your battery. When the battery is fully charged, reattach the positive cable and try to start your engine. If it starts take the truck to a shop or auto zone to have the charging system checked. Fix what is needed.
Any time a vehicle is jump started, do so with the hot battery car not running and its ignition off. If it is running and your car starts one or both charging systems are usually damaged. There may not be damage if it is GM to GM or Ford to Ford, etc., but to be safe, do not let both cars run at the same time when connected.

2000. Nisan maxima is it a interference motor when it jumps timing

the maxima engine has been identified as an intereference engine and valve damage is most likely to occur ( autodata timing belts publication)
timing is unlikely to jump unless the belt breaks or the belt tensioner becomes loose
if there is a timing problem then the engine will be difficult to start , or run very badly
If the motor starts and runs but lacks power or performance or just does not start then it is suggested to have the fault codes read to check for cam/crank position sensors and immobiliser operation

Wont idle runs rough

sometimes when engine jumps time it can cause the valves to get bent because engine is does not fire in order like it should.

Zx2 ran fine for a bit after timing belt change, now no start.

suspect the timing belt tension was to low and has jumped a few teeth initially(run rough) and then jumped further or stripped teeth(will not start at all).
check timing belt position setup....
if its 1-2 teeth out of timing you could put a new belt on with engine correctly setup.
.if its completely wrong the your engine will have internal damage(valves bent and pistons dented)

How do you check the timing on a 1992 honda civic 1.5 liter motor.

buy using a timing gun, any mechanic shop can do it for barley nothing. If you start having problems running correctly you might consider to have the timing belt check and replace, you dont want the timing belt to break or jump time, being 92' it may not ever have the timing belt replace. if it break or jump time bad, the chance you take is bent valves. timing belt should be replace every 75-100 k miles

Jump timing want start Mechanic just put new timing belt on

If the timing did jump and assuming no damage to the engine you'll need to get in to the engine and replace the timing belt and tensioner. This can be done on your own if your up to it. With the right tools it will take 5-6 hours. In the meantime do not attempt to start or run the engine.
I hope this may have helped,
Tom
