Default help?

Ticking noise from by where the intake is. sounds like a fap fap fap fap fap. Every second or so, it's pretty loud. Fixing intake should fix that noise right?


I also get misfires some times but that should be fixed with a tune up.
Once i get into 90mph and higher seems like my car struggles to go faster, hope it's just trans cause i plan on getting one from performabuilt or FLT real soon anyway.

You sure that noise isn't coming from around the Exhaust Manifolds, or in that area..

Well i know it's at the front, on the right side of the engine. What could it be? I sure do notice my exhaust doesn't sound like it did when i first got the car.

Also anyone know where i can get some window motors? Both sides , also my power locks don't work. Tried to have a shop look at it and see why he said "Have to fix both motors before i can see" Is that true?

Edit: Yeah my car is a mess, but I don't care i'm going to fix my baby up all the way.

well most shops will fix them up to the header/ exhaust manifold....get up to where the header/ exhaust manifold bolts to the motor your gonna have to find a shop or do it yourself...gaskets are like 10-40depending on how good of ones you get....a shop shouldnt be too outragous i wouldnt think
