Explain 1) a little better.

You say lopping and backfiring.

Lopping, to me, means that it is running, but very poorly, likely for short periods.

If that is correct, then it has to have some compression--you said "no" compression. Likely it has poor compression.

Have you checked your valve timing? The first thinkg I would check.
