A too tight belt will track to the side. The tension pulley flange has to be on the engine side. The balance belt tension pulley flange goes on the outside. I left the top cover off one time and checked the timing belt when the engine was hot. Tight as a drum but was marginally loose when the engine was cold. The timing belt does not have to be as tight cold as some think.

When was the last time you changed your timing and balance belts and/or cam chain and tensioner?
