Hey all, I replaced my timing belt tensioner at the beginning of November. I've put maybe 1200 miles on the car since doing so and the tensioner failed today. The belt didn't jump so the engine is fine. My concern is if there could be something that caused it to fail so soon or should I just leave it that the tensioner was defective. The car is a 98 gst with a 92 6bolt engine. The tensioner I bought was a dayco brand. Any thoughts would be great, thanks. Also the timing belt is a new oem belt.
