Sometimes it's the best idea to cut your losses and invest in something newer and presumably more reliable that will cost you less in the long run.

Before dismissing something in a condescending manner as a cheap idea, have some understanding of how a timing belt pulley is held on a motor. After you have done a couple timing belts like I have instead of bribing service managers with sweets (see I can be a condescending asshole too), you realize that the pulley is not held in place by that key, it's held together by the torque of the crank bolt. The key is only there to time the motor. So... if you can get it back together then tighten the bolt, it should be fine.
Why do people just post what they are thinking? Without thinking.
