Solution to Not running on 1 or 4 Cylinder + ticking sound

If you hear ticking under the valve covers and Cylinder 1 or 4 aren't running the screws on the 1 and 4 valve cover might be swrapped (longer screw goes on the front) luckily there is no damage to the #1 intake valve rocker. In my case. Runs like a camp now.

Yes, tricky issue.
Because everything looks fine as soon as you remove the cover to check out.
Good you found it before you tore everything apart. :)
