That is beyond my limited knowledge. I guess would be that you don't tighten the pulley all the way. The reason you rotate twice is to make sure the markings are in the right place after the two rotations.

Have a quick read through this excellent guide Biotoxic made. It is for a diesel engine, but the process may be similar.
