Really Need Some Help

Hey Guys,

I really need some input on this one. I've got a couple problems and I need some help figuring them out. I recently changed my pcv valve, pcv hose, valve cover seals and ignition coils. Aside from the bolts breaking that I mentioned before, it went smoothly. Okay, when I started the car back up, I get this loud, metallic clanking sound. It almost sounds like something fell down the manifold but I really can't tell. I'm also wondering if the valve cover with broken bolt is too loose. I could never get the broken part of the bolt out of the hole since the rethreading bit I used also broke off inside the broken bolt. I applied the gasket sealant and replaced the remaining bolts. Finally, the car comes up with a "P0193 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit High Input" code when it was cranked up. I'm not sure the meaning of this and if it's related to the clanking I hear.

Does anyone have any suggestions or input I could really use it here.

Yeah, that's quite my sentiment indeed. But, I still would like to know if anybody has any input before I take my car to the dealership - again.
 
sounds like something between the valves and the piston, dont start it again, might have hurt one of your wires during diassembly. take it to the dealer, tow it to the dealer, unless you have the mechanical aptitude to take it apart yourself. very easy to drop something into the sparkplug well or part of the old seals. if it has any sort of metal in it, it will tear you valves and pistons apart. as for the high input code, maybe crimped, broke or shorted wires.
