Time for a compression test. This doesn't tell you the whole story, but will give an indication if the motor is sound. Ten kicks with the throttle wide open should give 180 to 190 psi. Lower than 140 psi something is definitely wrong. Ground the plug so it sparks (or press the kill button to prevent sparking).

Maybe you have a stuck piston ring.
