The timing belt on my 1991 with 138K miles has slipped/jumped maybe 6 times in the last 2 months. Replaced the belt initially, the tensioner appeared to have a strong spring so I kept it. I will get the car in time and the car will run fine. Then on start up later the belt would have slipped and the engine will be out of time. At this moment I do not know what to do. I will replace the tensioner. Is there anything else that can cause the timing belt to jump? My ass is kicked.

Thanks
