Mechanics drive me nuts, I just refuse to deal with them.
I admit, I jumped a tooth on the cam sprocket when I changed out Black Widow's timing belt about six months ago. As soon as I fired it up I said to myself "I bet I jumped a tooth", but I added a string of curse words into the sentence.
I drove it like that for a week until I couldn't stand the funkiness any longer, tore it back down the next weekend and sure enough, the cam sprocket was off one tooth.
However, I didn't try to convince myself it wasn't my fault!
If those scrubs had your timing off a tooth after they changed the timing belt, it was their fault! If they say the tensioner pulley blah, blah, etc. . . .then they should have replaced it in the first place! You paid them to fix your car, and if it runs worse now, it's definitely their fault
