So here you will find a picture of the left-over bolt: http://www.pbase.com/macisaac/volvo&page=2

Also, there was a knocking sound when I took the car around the block, so I adjusted all the valve clearances to specs. Then there was no knocking sound for about 3 blocks, and then it started again, worse than before. It speeds up and slows down with the engine.

What started all this was the washer going into the 4th cylinder and welding itself to the piston head. There was some pretty hard banging when that happened. If my piston is damaged, would that be a knocking or tapping sound, or worse? Or is it possible I just didn't adjust the valves correctly?

Any ideas?

Greg
