If you don't Have compression it is one pen more of the following

Bent valves
Valve seat damage
Piston ring wear or damage
Cracked head
Cracked block or piston

It doesn't matter which one , you Tear the engine down

1 3 5 are in the firing order which is a conch to say that it's had a valve piston Collison
Empty Nester
