Mend Chevrolet Engine Oil Power Loss

Can I fix the knocking noise?

I have a noise that sounds like a loud ratchet coming from the engine in my Cavalier 2.0 GLi 1991. Knocking gets louder on the move. Power varies from normal to 70% at different times; both with the knocking. Oil is ok and I've changed plugs and leads.
