Background; 2000 jeep tj, 4 cyl 5 speed, had a slight tick but went away or wasnt noticeable after motor heated up, could just be exhaust leak
Jeep drove fine this morning, went got gas and clutch pedal was stiff. Got on the highway and felt like it was slipping, rev with little power. Got off highway pressed clutch in and rpm dropped below 1000 rpm (to idle rpm). When I mash the gas it hesitates like the engine is sputtering or struggling to get fuel or air. It sounds like the tick has stopped as well. Not sure if throwout bearing or MC or motor issues like lifters or valves.
