Get a container of an product that you add to the engine oil that claims to free sticking valves and stuck piston rings. Get a product that you add and leave in the oil as opposed to some that are intended for use as a flush during an oil change. The selected product should be feel "watery" when the container is shaken. Do not use a product that is thick!!!
Oil level is good? Oil looks good and smells ok?
Does the low oil pressure light come on when you turn on the ignition.... before you start the engine? Many switches fail "open" and you can have a loss of pressure with no warning light.
Performance OK?
Plugs look ok and all the same?
Acceleration smooth?
MPGs the same?
Loosing any coolant?
What oil have you been using? synthetic?
