If you are going to do a timing belt job you should get a book. Along with timing you will need to torque specs. Most parts stores sell manuals for $20. If you dont want to buy a book try autozone.com

wow ,6 posts, and even mixes 2 engines. all anon.
my guess. this is a 3 cylinder and is the Suzuki G10 , enigne
and has Throttle body injection.
what does "fluids out" mean?
leaks fuel someway, ? what fluid, name it. gas, oil, water,?
assuming its the engine? is it, and not transmission slipping? A/T? 1:the 60k tuneup in the operators guide done? the 3 causes are. (takes tools to find which, in most cases. lost compression , hot engine? poor spark (weak or not timed right) poor fueling. there are simple tests for each. we can do the tests, or guess?
The firing order is 1-3-2, distrubtor rotates counter clockwise. looking at engine from front of vehicle cyl. # 1 will be on your left cyl.# 2 center and cyl.# 3on your right.
for 1991 geo metro 1.0 liter 3 cyl engine the timing is 6 degrees before top dead center. you will need a tachometer because the rpm must be 800 when you set the timing. also you will need to disconnect the vacuum advance to the distributor, and plug the hose to avoid a vacuum leak. (alternate method is to pinch the vacuum advance hose going to the distributor while you are setting the timing) Good Luck!
