Engine timing help.
After doing valve adjustment i Just want to make sure I have the timing correct. Number 4 is at TDC. That's where it ends up on the marks (see pictures bellow). It seems to be a little off on the crank. If I line the crank with the single mark the DOTS are slightly off on my cams. But the way i have it now ... the dots are perfect on the cams. Am I off a tooth on the crank or am I good? Not sure if they allow to be between the single and double line on the crank ???? HELP ☺

Here's what mine looked like before and after I took it apart.
Ensure your cam chain is tight on the front side of the engine when reinstalling the sprockets and chain.

Thanks. I figured out my problem. Was on the 3rd mark and not the first one. Thanks
