Stuck valves is what it sounds like to me too so best to remove the head to properly deal with it. As an alternative, maybe pulling the plugs and filling the cylinders with diesel oil or even regular oil and letting it soak for a couple weeks, keeping them replenished (most will just drain through the stuck valves unfortunately) and keep the plugs loosely in the holes to keep out contaminants. Just be careful as when I had that happed, the valves had gotten so built-up that the engine actually stuck with too much pressure against the cam causing one valve to get bent during removal. The material on the valves was as hard as a rock!
