Ok now I feel stupid.. I might be the one who killed the seals!! ;p

this is not about buying it or not buying it... it's about why the seals gone bad.
today I took a good look at the belts and how they work (wich belt spins what..) and I reached the conclusion that the belt that is loose stops the air pump, water pump and the alternator.... yeah water pump :|
so I wonder... I reved it a bit played with it without the water circulating. the car was allways standing still only took it to the redline once and Im pretty sure it was after it felt KO.
I never give it full trothle or sumthing, just played with the pedal to ear and feel the engine, I think it never was on for more than 5 minutes and if it was it sure never was on for 10 minutes.

I feel stupid now!
but I don't care If I was the one who messed it up, cause that way I know what caused it.

what U guys think? (about the coolant seals, was it possible that it heated to much?? )
