The fire thing was a joke, trying to find some humor.....So, we put a helicoil in already so that the comp test could be done.
I didn't do a leakdown -- sprayed some oil in the cylinder to see if there was an improvement in the compression, stayed at 15 psi. That tells me it's the valve or valves.
I'm not going to attempt a DIY repair, out of space to work on cars, and knowing a shop that can do better, I'm thinking about having the head removed, and pray that the cylinder walls are OK.
What a bummer.....right in the middle of moving my father in laws belongings out of an apartment as now a nursing home is his zip code.
