Ticking over (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

idling

'ticking over' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for idling that I've seen before include "Not at work" , "Being unoccupied" , "Wasting time" , "Not in gear; lazing around" , "Being indolent" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
