Houston, we've got a problem.....
.
Welcome to the forum.
Note, that the '93 850s are unique and they require different parts & service intervals as compared to later models. The timing belt replacement should be every 50,000 miles/5 years. Change out the idler pulley, water pump (only if it's leaking), tensioner pulley & hydraulic tensioner when you do the belt. If you don't know when the belt was done the last time, I would have it done NOW.
Good luck,
JPN
