Hello,
Okay, so the first thing we need to do here is to check on the health of the engine. Given everything that you've told me here, let's start with a compression test. Here is a link for you to go to that describes how to do one:

Also, having a plugged oil filter is a sign of not changing the oil or the filter. If you don't change the oil and filter on a regular basis, you will compromise the longevity of your vehicle's engine's lifespan. All of the internal engine bearings require a thin film of oil to lubricate them otherwise you will have bearing failure of the main bearing, connecting rod bearings, and camshaft bearings. Please get back to us with what you find out from the compression test, and here is a link for you to go to on how to do an oil and filter change on your vehicle below:
