my timing belt came loose to the point where it doesnt start anymore. is there anyway that i could just simply tighten it back up? how tight should it be? should i replace the tensioner? im saving up for a swap so i do not want to buy a timing belt.

 

Timing belt is like 15 on egay, try re tightening it but if i doesn't start u coulda bent a valve or worse ....

 

comp.and leakdown tested it, no bent valves. spark+fuel. the timing just keeps throwing it self off

 

maybe you have a bad tensioner,get a brand new timing belt kit and fix it the right way cause you could smack that valve wit that piston and need a new head too

 

come it its not that expensive, just fix it right and get a new tensioner and belt
