i need help....anything is appreciated!

hey everyone,
im new hear....but i dont know what to do!
theres a "ticking" sound coming from my car, i can hear it continuously whenever i drive it. it seems like the engine was misfiring so i replaced spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, air filter, fuel filter, and oil change and filter. this didnt solve my problem....is it the fuel injectors?? im almost positive its misfiring because i dont have the power i used to and it revs all out of place when i accelerate.

Thanks for any help! It is GREATLY appreciated!
Dave

Do you know where exactly it is coming from? It could be sticky lifters or maybe an exhaust leak.

Sounds like a combo of a bad injector causing the computer to mess with your timing , take a look in the FAQ's for how to test your injectors. Its relativly easy u can do it with them in the car all u need is a Ohm meter. Good Luck!!
