No I am absolutely clear, the engine revved to 5K due to momentum of the vehicle and following mini seconds it stalled. As the RPM was going down at around 4000 RPM with the clutch depressed, I did hear what I would describe as if a belt snapped. and I was under impression it was the timing belt, however the belt and all other timing components were fine. So whatever faint noise I heard damaged something internal I guess. The mechanic will do more troubleshooting on Monday so I will know more about what's going on. I will be relaying all of these opinions to him so he is also informed as he looks for clues.
