Ok so I was cruising along. And car lost a lot of power started to back fire and basically run like shit. No gas smell but there was a little burnt smell 10 mins before the problem occurred.
Any ideas car is stock and the check engine light also came on later. Thx

I'd be worried about the metal noise, I wouldn't start it again until you have a better idea of what's wrong to prevent further damage, good luck [patriot]
