the clicking when the ignition is on is the idle control valve, this is normal, shuold do it for about 10 secs then stop.

the pulleys, do you mean they turn backwards just as it stops - normal again, if its just coming up to a comprssion stroke it will be forced back to either just before top dead centre or bottom dead centre.
