ok now there is a knocking sound comming from my engine it happend after i changed my battery, plug wires, valve cover, and brakes (all at once). some of you may remember that i posted somthing about fouled plug wires. well i changed them and they work fine they messed up after i swapped out my valve cover. and i did my brakes and battery the same day. then the next day (yesterday) got some new plug wires and fixed the bad plug now my car runs like shit 
when i changed my brakes i bled out all the fluid and refilled it like the manuel says but i accedently put a little too much in there and some of it spilled out of the resivoir(sp) tank. maybe some if it got on to a pully and slipped off a belt but im not sure (i will check tomarrow). but now there is a loud knocking sound comming from the engine, its the loudest at the back of the engine near the intake manifold, on the drivers side (where all the pullys are) at around 3000 RPM (or 20% throttle). when im driving the car just cuts off after boost (only if i let off the gas and put it in neutral) but if i leave it in gear it will slow down faster than normal it almost feals like im applying the breaks. the car idles fine and as long as i dont take it to 3K RPM the knocking sound will not occur (yet). it idles fine and almost drives normal (except for the excessive decelleration and lack of acceleration) it still accelerates but not nearly as quickly as it did before. and also sometimes when i push in the clutch it dies or the RPMs go way under the 750 idle (around 300-550 RPM). i guess thats about it. she is my daily driver any help at all please
