can someone give me a layout of how to tighten my brothers valve cover its a 89 ka24e SOHC. thanks in advance

anyone know of the order?

when you're tightening the valve cover, you have to tighten it from inside out. Basically from inner most, then go back and forth between both sides. If you tighten left side then jump to right side, then left side again. Like this:



8-----7
2-----5
---1---
4-----3
6-----9

If you want to take off the valve cover, then it's outside in. One more thing, this is for RWD layout engine (since I have RWD SR20DET), so you have to turn it 90 degrees

does people in this forum not thank anyone for their help?

It'll be funny if people on the forum actually believes in everything others say . . . people might tell something completely wrong and they won't know it . . .

I am under the impression that you are an idiot. Thanks. :rolleyes:

secondly you need to look at the date on my first post and second post....i gave up on looking back here since no one replied

in closing...you are a moron and dont ever reply to my posts again

Okay this is inappropriate banter.

NismoRPS13...you've managed to develop a bad taste in most people's mouths.....if think it's in poor taste to "expect" a response from your help. If he didn't check back, he didn't check back. I don't get "thanks" every time someone gains insightful knowledge from a post that I've left.

TX180SX: You crack me up buddy! Thanks!
