If the belt broke or slipped, The first thing id do is a compression test to make sure you didnt bend any valves,it might be a waste of time just replacing the tensioner.

thanx man, I hadnt thought of that! I did the compression test today and it can out good and a mechanic from down the road helped out with the tensioner fix at NO EXTRA CHARGE !!! it wasnt as hard as I thought, just needed a little patience, just like lacing-up some new boots!!
