Knocks at idle...now 200 1993 posted by  J.R. on  Sat Aug 23 21:25 CST 2008 Author: [PROFILE] [EVERY POST] [THREADS] [BEST POSTS]     [IGNORE ALL POSTS] last visit: Fri Nov 21 05:37 CST 2008 [RELATED] Just replaced head, intake & exhaust gaskets; new oil seperator, new water pump, oil change, pulled my backup MAF off and put the new rebuilt on (FCP) and new timing belt. I've changed a number of Volvo 240 belts. Never a problem. I even use the proper tool to hold the crankshaft pulley. I cleaned the top deck of the head with kerosene, let it dry and applied a light coating of oil on the cam lobes. All before I installed it of course. So I start the car and I have an instant knock. Shut it down after a few seconds. Almost sounds like a rod wants to let go. Took the front end apart and the Camshaft, Idler and Crank pulley all were on their marks with #1 at TDC. Did I induce a valve to stick during the head gasket swap out? Is it possible to get the head gasket 180 out? I thought I was being careful. I even vacuumed cylinders 2 and 3 to be sure nothing was left behind. Thoughts please. Wasn't exactly planning on working on this on Sunday too. Oh well!
