It is possible it has a broken timing belt if it wont start.

The timing belt didn't brake but the smaller timing belt had all the teeth ripped off. Since then I replace timing belts and water pump. Do you think it might have something to do with the distributor?

Check the PGMI relay or ( main fuel relay ) it's up under the dash on the driver's side by the column. The part is 15-40$ depending on how you shop
