Sounds like you have a compression issue. Here's an easy way to do a visual compression check if you don't have a gauge. Pull both your lower spark plugs and disconnect the white connector on the CAS (crank angle sensor). This will eliminate any spark. Now have a friend crank over the engine and look and listen for even air pulses comming out of the removed spark plug holes. If your engine compression is healthy, you should be able to see the fuel mist being blown out. If they are uneven, you either have stuck seals of even worst, blown seals.
