I'm new to this site... I own a 98 2.0 eclipse non turbo DOHC, and I'm looking for anyone who knows or can find the order of the valve cover bolt on sequence.. so I dont mess it up. I just took off the cover and putting on a new gasket.. i just need to know what order the bolts go back on. help would be appreciated much, thanks.
 
according to my Chilton manual there is no exact sequence. i would start from the middle and work my way out in a staggered pattern. torque the bolts to 5 foot lbs. use a beam or dial type torque wrench instead of a clicker.
