I'm having trouble getting my timing belt tight after adjusting the timing. Anyone able to help me??

I am having the same problem. I adjusted my timing belt and tensioner, and now my timing belt vibrates.

I'm hoping I'll find something when I take my timing cover off. Just allot of work to get there.

The pring behind the belt popped off the upper hook.
found a loose spring on my tensioner behind the timing belt there.

I think this is my problem... that cam key doesn't look right..

This doesn't look right to me?

alright bro so did you find both locating pins

Yea I already had the crank pulley off and that one was in. When I took the cam gear bolt off I noticed that the key way on the cam gear wasn't right below the dot so I pulled it off and the keyway is sheared in half and it welded the other half in the cam gear. What would cause the pin to shear like that? I bought this car from some random guy who did shitty work.. missing nits and bolts everywhere..

the cam bolt being loose would make this happen
but now we know the problem ^_^

im sure once you get the parts replaced the car should start right up
your timing will finely be good to go

Yea I'll let you know what happens this weekend! Appreciate you!
