85 245 with B230 engine - timing belt marks position check after install 200

Hello everyone,
I installed a new timing belt on my 245 but I wanted to verify my setup by manually rotating the crankshaft until I could see again all aligned features.
I mean: belt marking, pulley marking and engine marking all aligned on all three shafts.
It seems I did something wrong or it takes many full rotations before you see the same pattern again? So far it does not seem to show the original alignment but I did not perform more than, maybe, 12 full rotations.

Does anyone know the answer to this question below? Assuming the three pulleys line up perfectly to belt and engine marks during install.
How many full rotation of the crankshaft does it take to reproduce the original alignment between belt marking, pulley marking and engine marking?

Thanks for your help.
