ok so i have my car almost back together. i have cylinder 1 at tdc and my cam gears on the mark. i get the tensioner in and then turn it over with a wrench to double check my work. it all check out, but when i crank the car with the key my belt is off by a few teeth. the belt seems snug, no slack in it. but the tensioner has been off a few times. should i buy a new tensioner, or do i have other issues? thanks.

Sounds like a tensioner issue to me.
