Re: 0 compression

Why? Have you pulled the head and looked at the cylinder and piston to see what happened?

Re: 0 compression

Just a head gasket might make you happy but it doesn't make a difference , because once you pull the head you need to replace the gasket anyhow, along with anything else causing the problem.

There are no valves involved in the combustion cycle of your motor.

Once you remove the head you need to verify that the cylinder walls are not scored, pistons are not cracked, broken, chipped, etc. You also need to verify that the head is not warped in any way..........and......

In the future when you are posting a question, include details, for many of us, we will only put the same amount of effort into our answers as people put into their questions......I was feeling generous tonight and kinda bored otherwise your answer would have resembled this "well then fix it".

Nah I just took a full 2 days off from all work of any type, you should know better than to think the wife would let me play, wives only let people think that they are letting them play.....

5 bucks says its Hole in piston, or broken rod anyone???? either way you would probably get 10psi without any rings at all and 50 with a bad gasket unless it was so bad you could put your finger where the gasket used to be.
