    If this is a 2.7 motor (aka.Sludge motor) It could be sludged up.

    It could also be the timing chain. Pull off the oil cap while running look into with a flashlight and try to see it you can see ant oil circulation al all.

    Sounds to be a valvetrain problem. Oil pump or oil delivery problem.

    Have someone start with checking the oil pressure.
