    Hi GPF. I am new to owning a GP and new to this forum so i'm sorry if my question was already answered. I've searched thru hundreds of post but could not find a specific answer. I have a 1999 GP GT, when I accelerate I hear a ticking coming from the left side by the belt, then when I come to a stop the car will shut down and die. right before it dies the rpms drop low and the oil light comes on then poof, car is dead. it does start back up but hesitates and I have to give it gas. I can not pinpoint if the knocking/ticking is coming from the belt-drive or the engine itself. I started noticing the ticking slightly a week ago when I put Mercon Techron in it to clean the injectors. I am truly at a loss and hope someone can help me out quick.
