I don't think there's rubber in my tensioner (but it has been such a long time since I had it off!)
If you remove the tensioner (again) any rough running or out of round running should be noticeable (if rough running replace before the bearing dies on you)
One thing that might help is to have the system back fitted as it should be then turn the crank (clockwise from front) for a few revolutions to make sure the belt is settled / positioned on all pulleys correctly - then try and tension again
[General note about Pelican DIYs - they're not always right - checking the FSM is a much better option in my opinion - that's my first port of call anyway (for what it is worth)]
