I'm noticing a ticking from what seems to be the heads, and i have a loss of power, i'm gonna replace all the vaccum lines ( i suspect i have a vaccum leak) Check my belt tension, and check my timing, anything else i should be checking for? I suspect the ticking may be a lose rocker arm or possibly a crushed lifter? idk but this loss of power really concerns me. any input is greatly appreciated.(I have an 89 gt btw)
