I'd say that you have no choice but to pull it and find the problem. Could be a hole in the piston or a broken piston, bad valve, hard to say. I had a 360 that had 3 broken rings in it. Didn't ever know until I took it apart. It didn't smoke out the exhaust but had some out of the breather, sounds more sever than just a broken ring, but I could be wrong.
