My cars running like crap. I first noticed it after a night of drunken abuse without warming the car up. I was driftng and hit a curb pretty hard. The morning after i drove it and it had lost power in all gears. And the exhause sounded like a subie STI! Now its making a very loud knocking/ ticker while sitting and ideling. Aswell as when i give it gas. Any insight would be great.. thankyou. http://static.photobucket.com/player...018_175001.mp4

When you hit the curb hard you can create all kind of vacuum leaks in your engine, plus the crack in your filler cap. I would replace the cap and perform a smoke test to find your leaks before doing anything else.Comment

Everyone on R3v always replies to these threads ' its the lifters'. So I'm gonna reply with what my issue was..
It's the crank pully

@tanktheroy. The crank pully is how hard to fix and does these symptoms sound like this issue?
@duguyen, thanks ill have my mecanic try and do a smoke test. All my hoses are pretty old so i may have a vaccume leak but would it be making a knocking noise coming from the top of the engine?Comment
