tempting timing belt fait
So i had to change my cam tower gasket and in an effort to save some dough i marked a cam gear tooth and the timing belt with a wax pen and slid it off and when i was done the gasket i just slid the belt back on an lined up the belt again.
Ive driven it about 500-700 miles... HARD.. and have not had any problems
My question is do you think ill be okay or should i have the belt tension checked?

It doesn't take long to check. You could do the twist method (free), kricket tool from NAPA (really cheap), or get some nice tools (arnworx or the factory tool). Seems well worth the investment of half an hour.
