Sound like the timing is off, check to see of both cams are lined up properly with each other and the mark on the crank

If it was fine and suddenly it start sounding like a Scooby, I would bet one of your sparkplug wires popped off. Check your wires. If it’s not them do a compression test and let us know the result.
