Crank question

[boosted_91_tsi]

Well I replaced the pulleys and hyd. tensioner, however the crank sprocket was turned about 1/8 to 1/4 turn clockwise while not engaged with the timing belt. I am wondering if I can just turn the sprocket counter clockwise for a 1/4 turn, or should I rotate it one full turn or do I need to rotate it a full 6 turns ( guessing it would relalign the crank). I am going by the VFAQ's and I know it says not to turn the crank counter clockwise, but could a 1/4 make a difference?

I dont see why you couldnt turn it right back to where it needs to be. If you still have balance shafts, you are going to want to make sure both are timed correctly.

The balance shafts were taken out a while back, I only wanted to make sure it would not hurt anything just rotating it backwards. Thanks for the reply.
