As oil levels and quality is important to the viability to engine performance, I don’t believe that is the cause of this issue. Sounds like a fuel/spark issue. It could be as simple as a loose spark plug wire or as serious as a timing chain skipping a tooth due to a chain guide malfunction. Check the basics first, check connections, coils to spark plug wires, wires to plugs etc.
