    Since pulling engine out isn't an option, at least take off the oil pan to see if any rods are broken. Pull the heads to look inside combustion chambers. Bent valves are an easy fix but if they collided with pistons hard enough, then there will be damage to the pistons as well. You can always...

    need more info about when this problem started. did it start after you did something to the car or did you recently purchase the vehicle with this problem? have you replaced spark plugs recently? if so, check wires to make sure they are in correct order. also check all vacuum lines.
