are we sure i didn't "skip a tooth"? (the DieselGiant site makes reference to this...but how in the world could you skip one?)

if we're positive it's just a tensioner issue, how do i get the slack back in there? do i just unclamp the tensioner side, drop 1/2 a link slack back into that side, and then install the tensioner?
