It probably has a stuck valve. Easiest check: Pull the plugs out and with a little help, (and in neutral) have someone crank the engine just a few turns with your thumb covering the spark plug holes, one at a time.

It will probably begin moving, and spring back closed. Put the pushrod back on, and adjust the valves to .020 cold. Then put it back together temporarily and adjust the valves when warmed up to .017".
