I have a cutlass supreme SL 3.4L. what would the symptoms be if the timing belt was broken. when i try to start it the starter cranks up and the serpentine belt just turns faster then normal.

Those are definitely symptoms of failed timing belt / chain. Engine will not start and will turn over much faster than normal
