ok so i got the new cam gear on and the timing is right and all that shit but my tensioner is fucking up. i was told to turn the crank a full turn, so i did, then i was told to tighten the tensioner, so i tried. if i try to tighten the tensioner half way through the revolution is tightens as normal, but when tighten it after a full revolution it will get kinda tight then loosen. i was wondering if im doing something wrong or what. i dont know if it matters but sometimes the timing belt is loose on one side of the cam gear,tight on the other, then later its vice versa. what should i do?

maybe you need a new tensioner or you got the wrong size belt ??

remove tensioner, clean the gunk behind it off, apply light coat of oil, now install the timing belt.

Why did you mess with the tensioner in the first place?????
