i bought new tensioners, idler sprocket, and 2 new belts, i put them on( with the correct rotaion inbetween belts)and i adjusted them but im not quite shure that i have them tight enough( i also dont have the special tool )so how much play should i have the belts.

Check your pm. just tight enough that the side of the belt opposite of the tesioner is taut. see how she rund, and listen for a knocking sound at the disty. backlash will cause a knocking at the disty, and a jumpy tach.

 

if you do not have these symptoms, you are good.
