In any case, if your engine has more than 70,000 miles on the timing belt, it needs a new one at once. HOwever, the slip you experienced is not supposed to have damaged anything as this engine is non-interference.
Going past 70,000 miles on the belt is looking for being stranded in the middle of nowhere...tested by many...some info: http://www.geocities.com/lmp4203/kia...TimingBelt.zip
Now,... having no torque below 4000 ...is just like mine. I'm sure you mean it is worse than before....any trouble code set?

Talking Re: 2000 sportage has me boggle read

no the only code it had was for bank 1 o2 sensor i change the belt about a year ago it probably jump because the belt stretch a little and the tensioner
on this cars suck but like i stated before timing marks are line up perfect
i have fuel and spark the 3 major thing for it to run i even did the grounds
