You are not alone in not having the mental concept of the four stroke engine having 720 degrees of rotation in a cycle.
This means that the crank looks exactly the same at the proper point you are looking for....and at 360 degree from that point... and the only way to tell is to look at the cam pulley or the lobes of the camshaft...
It is FOUR STROKES, two complete revolutions to accomplish that... 360x2= 720 degrees of turn total....
