is my timing messed up ??
i have this weird - chatter like sound - when my car is under heavy load, especially high RPM. also, i lost a lot of power at high RPM, it seems like my car bog down. i thought my clutch was slipping, but then i ask my automotive teacher, and he said that my best bet would be the timing. he was saying something about the fuel does not properly burnt, and my lost of power would be the result from it. however, if my clutch does not engage ( if i rev the car when in neutral, the noise goes away.)
what do you guys think? thanks for the input in advance.

yeah, his *** will help me possibly on tuesday, however it is still uncertain. his *** was suppose to help me on thursday's class, but it was all theory class. so i gotta wait until tuesday. how expensive is a timing gun?

not really. it sounds like a loose bearing or something, but my teacher said it sounds like the fuel does not burnt properly. the thing is, if i go WOT, the car does not pull at all, it does not have power. i compared my car to my friends, with the same car, same year and mileage, and his pulled way stronger than mine.
