Long story short, I'm trying to get the correct tension on my timing belt, namely between the water pump and the cam(but obviously everything else).
I've got between the cams and the water pump as taught as I can get it, but it still seems looser than it should be(read, not 100% taught). So, any words of wisdom here or something? TiA! -------------------- 2019 M2, 2005 S2000, 1997 4Runne

Is it completely loose? When i do timing belts i like to advance the cam gear one tooth. Then when i get the belt on retard it one tooth so that takes all the tension out and the left over tension should be taken out from the tensioner.
