Valve sticking, Burnt or broken valve, or bad valve seat could all be the problem. Be sure to check leakdown compression at 15-20 degrees PAST top dead center! Compression release is still engaged at TDC!

What could be wrong if you went over a bump in the road and now your car shakes but smooths out above 30MPH?

Chances are You threw a tire out of balance by losing a wheel weight, bent the rim or even the steel belt inside the tire.
