Part 3. Engine disassembly.  I was getting 120 to 145 psi compression on all cylinders except No 1 which read zero. Removed the cylinder head, jugs, and pistons. #1 piston was heavily pinged and the top ring groove was compressed. The #1 valve seats were also pinged.  Appears something got into the #1 cylinder.

No 1 piston damage
No 1 piston damage
No 1 valves
