Unhappy Squeals then shuts off

When i start my car it runs (with the fuel pump unplugged >.<) then after like 2 mins it with squeal really loud in the engine somewhere and shut off. It ripped my timing belt right in half. It didn't lock or anything still easy to turn the crank. Any ideas?

Check for seized water pump, tensioner or camshaft. Lack of oil to the top of the engine will cause the cam to seize.

It's not going to run without the fuel pump. You must have unplugged something else.

seriously dude, that doesn't make sense. Maybe take a picture and show us what you're unplugging? how could fuel get to your engine without a pump?
