I have an 89 GT with just over 100,000 miles on it. Over the last few thousand miles there is a ticking sound that has gotten gradually louder. The tick happens as the rpm's increase and its frequency increases with the RPM's. I've also noticed that as the tick has gotten louder the engine has lost noticeable power. Any ideas on what could be causing this? Thanks in advance!
