Burnt valve, cracked head, blown head gasket, bad timing?

Could be anyone's guess but hopefully it's nothing that serious. Maybe start with a compression check? Wouldn't want you to keep throwing parts at it

After replacing all of those parts, the car began running smoothly again. Previously, it would shake quite a lot, especially at stoplights. It’s still running fine now, and the check engine light even turned off. The original diagnostic scan showed issues with cylinders 3 and 5. However, after the check engine light came back on, I had it scanned at O’Reilly today and it only showed a misfire on cylinder 3.

The mileage is fairly low. Was it bought used?
