New Timing Belt Install
I put the new timing belt on with thee cams and crank mark aligned. I rotated the engine counterclockwise a few times and it's aligned at TDC but the crank mark is off my a tooth. Does the crank has to be aligned too when the engine is turned over a few times. Thanks.

Yes, after several cranks the crankshaft mark should still be at TDC with the cam marks. If you have to, take the belt off the cams and adjust it so that it is consistently TDC.
