Sounds like internal fail. Be sure all fluids are good (especially oil), pull the plugs, see what they look like. Shut off right after dropping? If oil is good and plugs arent completely black or distorted, you will probably need to take it to a shop and have them take a look into the cylinders (or if they can tell where the tick is from).
