if the timing belt is getting looser then its most likely the tensioner. grab a new
belt and tensioner from the honda dealership and all will be cured. and just to warn you. GO WITH A OEM tensioner. the oem equivalents at the auto parts stores tend go bad really quick sometimes. i've heard this from many people lately, and the last thing you want is to lose your belt on the highway goin 70. just a lil advice, hope this helps. repost and lemme know.

Did you set the tps when you installed it? if not then it would cause your car to run like crap
