Where is the belt slipping off? Do you have the crank pulley and everything all back together?

Check the new belt. Stretch out the new belt with the old timing belt. They should be exactly the right size. Or you could call Greddy and ask them what part number you should have. Alot of times parts people send the wrong parts.

im assuming the belt tensioner is bad because i bought a new timing belt and a tensioner it was fine.... Now i have to replace the brand new valve i put in because now i have 120psi out of the 1,2, & 4th cylinders and 0psi in the 2nd cylinder.
