Well, make sure it's your tensioner because the stock tensioner is hydraulic and when it sits (say overnight) it lets a little slack out and the timing belt will appear to be a little loose. When you start it up though, it will take the slack out of the belt immediately. Like I said, make sure it's the tensioner. When mine sits I can usually move the belt about a half inch in either direction.
