Re: Too much timing belt travel...

The difference in the position of the tensioner is because you're using a brand new belt. That's the whole reason there is an automatic tensioner on a timing belt. It keeps constant tension on the belt, even as the belt stretches out over time.

Based on the videos, I think you have a faulty timing belt that isn't "true".
