the belt was fine but the tensioner was about to split in half


Now that is scary!




thinking about it now, it could have been. when i held the tensioner up to a light you could see the cracks, they were about 180 degrees apart and kinda close to the edge. of yeah all three pullies were rounded off to the point that the timing belt was not centered on the cam gears. I though I do not recal any running problems
