Bad piston ring or bad valve, need help!
A couple of months ago my car went down, I thought it was that a spark plug wire that came off. I stopped and checked and everything was connected, I damned near POOPED my pants.
After I left work I checked the compression Cyl. 1 - 135
Cyl. 2 - 130
Cyl. 3 - 130
Cyl. 4 - goose egg
My setup:
B18C1
DRAG 3 kit (7psi)
stock internals
My question are:
What else can I do to pinpoint the problem?
Why do I have ZERO compression? (even with bad rings, I would still get somekind pressure)
I'm all ears

Pour a very little amount of oil in each cylinder and see if the compression goes up than its the rings.
The oil will form a temporary seal.
