Did a timing belt job a week ago, 2000 1.8t atw, car has no low end power. All signs point to timing belt off a tooth. Drove it gingerly for the week, just got back into it to adjust. When I line cam marks up, crank marks are WAY off. There has been no valve clash. When I line up the crank pulley mark to the TDC mark on the timing belt cover, the cam marks are off by 3 full teeth. I've rotated engine several times to see if crank TDC would get closer to cam marks. Check out pictures linked. Afraid to adjust too much. Advice?
Cam marks

Crank marks

 

I have set the crank to TDC, the cam is 3 teeth to the left of the mark (if I rotated clockwise, it would line up in 3 teeth). Question is, should I remove the bent and just rotate the cam ahead a few teeth... or should I line the cam marks up, then pull the belt and rotate the crank twice and get it to line up? Or does it matter?

 

Set crank to TDC, removed timing belt and rotated cam clockwise 3 teeth so it matched up with the marks. Rotated engine by hand twice, all lined up. Runs like a champ.
