How is your vaccuum and idle? If good, I agree CPS would be the next stop.

Well it can only be so many things don't get fustrated it could be worse... are you loosing coolant? I dont think thats your problem but its a posibilty. Check your fuel pressor. Go to autozone get a compression tester and fuel pressor tester. Then check to see if your getting the right spark it might be the coil packs... even injectors.

Any CEL's? Stop, take a step back, and diagnose it before flushing it down the toilet.

What noise do you hear clicking? To me it does not sound like a blown motor. Maybe your ecu decided just to not work??? I dunno but i can tell you don't give up. It's times like this where u just hit the bong, relax and think about it in a diffrent way.

WOW this is why you don't race when your car has issues!! who won? Well it looks like you have a BIGGER problem now so i don't know if any one or even yourself can do anything about it, besides getting it repaired or a motor swap? Well good luck, peeece.
