So how screwed am I? S70 1998

All,

Today I replaced the timing belt on my S70 and when I started it up it sounded like a diesel.

I immediately shut it off and checked the timing marks.

Both Cams were still perfect, but upon closer inspection, the crank had slipped at most 1 tooth, maybe two counter clockwise.

I fixed it and it started up and ran just fine.

Plan to change the oil tomorrow and check the compression after that.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Matt
