My valve cover gasket had a small leak in the rear which led me to believe that it was falling on the temp sensor which was making it go hay wire. So I went ahead replacing the gasket and than proceeded to clean everything and make sure everything was clean and well. I re installed it and followed the torque pattern online and than went ahead and torque'd it with a 1/4 inch rachet. Everything was tight and well so i proceeded and started the car and it had a clack noise and also had somewhat of a rythm to it. Now i am pretty sure i did not drop any tools in there because my tool selection for the job was minimal along with i have everything that i used at the moment. So i didnt drop anything anyone know if i may have over torqued it or any reason for the sound to appear. I did remove the wires from the coil and re did them in the same firing order 4123. The car starts fine just has the clack Clack clack Clack noise.

Any Idea's or has anyone experince this issue
