If you say so. NO compression would seem to me to be more than just "out of adjustment valves". I can't think of a likely senario where TWO cylinders would have ZERO compression and not have it be catastophic. But, I will concede that I've never adjusted the valves to achieve that effect. I'm very curious. Please let us know what the verdict is. James > No it's not! It's just sleeping. I had a emgine with NO compression on >2 cylinders and it was a simple vavle adjustment.
