Default adjusting timing chain help!

So I belive my timing belt/chain is losse the side near the alternator is loser than the side.with the compressor. But if I pull slightly it will get lose on the compressor side. And my car just kepts rolling when I try cranking it
My question is how can I adjust it to tighten it? I know its easier to take out the engine but what's the best way to do it while in car what should I remove to gain that space near crank pully? Thanks very much!

You need to tell people what engine you have.

What does this mean?

what i did to tighten my timing belt was to remove the left side engine mount and let the motor down a little to get at the crank bolt.

Was it running with that head? You may need a adjustable cam gear if not not sure if that's the combo that needs it maybe someone else can verify that

well by my understanding a d15b2 head is the exact thing as a d16a6 head. only the a6 has more aggressive tuning . so basicly I have si intake manifold and si dizzy. but I think I solved my problem by what Jupiter suggested. I pulled my Pull a bit and it pulled right off my cam gear. now I just need diagrams to tight it correctly!
