Personally, I'll suggest that one can over-adjust a manual tensioner by doing it too often, trying to keep zero slack, zero slack, zero slack!
If it has one little spot that it is just a touch too snug, it HAS to wear to accommodate that snug spot.
A drive chain system of any kind really does not last as long with ZERO Slack, as it does with 'some slack'.
Allow me to suggest to Check the adjustment at the Same EXACT TDC MARK once every 5000-7500 miles.
