I can hear a ticking noise and can tell it does not have the same power. I was able to get on plan then shut it down. Any info would be great it,s a 2011 250

Sounds like you could have lost some rings. Do a compression test.

if you have aluminum on a spark plug run compression on that hole see what you have. aluminum on a plug means that a piston has come apart an you have major problems.
