Well i have a question. I recently changed my timing belt and it humms kinda loud and i wanted to know if thats just what it does to wear in err i mean break in or.. is it too tight? or are the bearings shot on my tensioner pulley or whatever the f**k its called..
thanks

Yeah, it sound likes the belt has more tension on the tensioner & it can't handle it. They go out after 15 plus years. The tensioner adjusts by itself, not sure how it would be too tight. Here is one on ebay if it helps. link >>>> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7925255597&rd=1&sspagename=STRK

The bearings could be shot in the tensionner but I guess it's just too tight. The belt will humm a bit when too tight.
