well, I should word things better. It has some compression on the left, but it's well short of what it should have. Like 50 lbs (less or more, depending on the cylinder. And they don't hold, it leaks down quickly. The engine was running fine and was shut down as the fire burst up. I feel strongly that the issue is corrosion and chemical damage to the valves and seats. The pistons look 100% normal...not valve mark telltales, and the honing marks are still visible on the cylinders.
