I just replaced the water pump on my 99 Alero, and the car is not running like before. When I accelerate it stuters and when driving the RPM's seem to be too high at the speeds I drive. The car feels uncoordinated, and seems the car has no accelerating power. I really dont think its my tranny, and think it has something to do with my timing belt.

Hi there,

Your engine should have a timing chain, not a belt. I would start with doing a scan to see if there is any set fault codes, and re post your findings.
