When the pointer on the balancer was a 0 the rotor was pointing opposite of #1 spark plug. I

That would be correct if it was at the pointer on the exhaust stroke; you either have to be sure it's on the compression stroke before you check, or just do "trial and error"- if it doesn't start move it again back to where it was.

The distributor makes one full rotation for each TWO full rotations of the crankshaft!
