Default OS Engine Maintenance?

Quick question... I have an OS Max .12 Cv-x(s) on an rc10gt factory team... I've had it for a while now... a few years, and recently the engine is difficult to start. Seems as though I have no compression, and sometimes when the pull start is used, the pull starter doesn't 'grab' every "rotation" (you'll feel it crank a few times and then it's loose to pull all the way to completley extended. At first i thought it was the one way bearing in the pull start assembly, so i replaced it. To no avail the problem persisted. Now I'm starting to think it's my piston sleeve. Anyone got any ideas? It's getting frustrating to start!! [:@]
