It stands to reason that if the tension is low the belt could posibly slip on the water pump.

Aaah, understood, but then is it not possible for the belt to slip one teeth or so ? hope the mech checked the timing afterwards.

Thanks for the comments.

I am looking into putting an after market temp gauge where my inclineometer is as its leaking and its not a tool I use. I know there are some topics on the forum regarding this. I will try find them to help me out.

Thanks again,
