i think I friend my engine. The car has very little boost and is back firing pretty bad and when I hit the gas the car dies out. I notice like a ticking sound from the enging bay, could it be a hose loose? theres no smoke from the exhaust. It all seem to happen when I changed my plugs. any ideas?? What are the symptoms of a blown engine?

 

Rough idle, hard hot starting. Have you checked the hose to your MAP sensor?

 

It starts fine and the idle is ok, but ill check that hose.

 

get the compression checked...thatll tell you where you stand..it will also tell you how much life is left in yur enjin.
