You might have jumped timing. Have you checked compression? I would start with that, and see from there. Since your battery is fine and motor spins freely without resistance.

Too much compression might be a valve timing issue. I can't think of any thing else on the top of my head. I'm sorry but I would say you should check the marks on all the gears again.
