Sometimes when I'm at a stoplight, when the light changes and I go to take off the engine will stutter and sometimes it will die. This doesn't happen every single time. This has happened to me before and I found that the timing chain had slack in it. I replaced the timing chain and that fixed the problem... For the time being. I have noticed that it sounds like there's an exhaust leak (ticking noise) and the Jeep seems to be running a little rough at idle. RPMs are normal, but it just doesn't feel like it is idling smoothly. Is it possible that there's a leak in the exhaust manifold that has the o2 sensor telling the computer that there's too much 02. so the computer has adjusted the timing making it off? It's an '05 6 cylinder. Is it possible that there is something wrong w/ the engine that is causing the timing chain to wear prematurely? If so, what could that be?
