I think i have screwed up my auto tensioner, I loosed the allen wrench on the bottom of it and oil came out, which i figure is normal, but is there any way to fill it back up? i know its not shot.. but with all the oil out of it its not compressing (tightening the belt) so.. question is is there any way to put oil back in the thing? or am i gonna have to buy a new one? this one is not old maybe 3-4months if that

Yeah, that wasnt good..get a new one. That was all the hydraulic fluid that needs to be there for it to work properly.
