    There is a super annoying tickin sound from under my hood started out sounding more like a chirping sound it has evolved to a pretty rhythmic tick. Which ticks faster when I go faster. Sounds like a pulley maybe but I'm not sure I am capable of diagnosing by sound?? Any ideas? ALSO... Cuz its not enough that it ticks my exaust rattles like a bastard. (Not the heat shield) the bolts on my exaust clamps are So curouted I can't get a wrench around'em time 4 new ones??? My jeep sounds like an annoying 1 man band :(...PLZ HELP :)

    Start it up. Then VERY CAREFULLY spray a little WD40 on the pullies one at a time. If that is what it is you should hear the sound change or go away when you hit the squeaky one with the oil.
