Hello everyone!
I just finished replacing my head gasket, started the car up and it runs fine.
Does the belt have to be perfectly centered on the cam sprockets, mine is flush to the right facing the engine.
Also the tensioner arm wobbles back and forth while the car is on, should i be worried?
Everything is tight. Thanks.

Okay, maybe my procedure was wrong?
I did this..
1) had the tensioner around 11 o'clock
2) Loosely put on bolt
3) Put belt on
4) Moved the tensioner to around 7 o'clock
5) tightened bolt
Anything wrong with the above?
Could it be that the belt is off to the right of the sprocket (toward the engine) that it is hitting the little tensioner arm?
Thanks for any help.
