Re: Swift has no power, need help please

Greetings, I own a 93 geo metro with a 1.0l. I had the exact same problem so I might be able to help.

Much like your mechanic, I too couldn't find the problem but I ended up finding that the crankshaft timing gear had bent the crankshaft gear keywedge. The only way to know for sure is to pull off the timing belt cover and the crank pully and then pull off the crank timing gear and inspect the keywedge. Its all pretty simple and you should only take and hour or so to check.

Good Luck
