bent valve/compression

Guys, im sure i have a bent valve on my motor, would doing a compression test determine which cylinder needs it's valves replaced? It's a long story about how it happened, but it happened.

Thanks guys.

RE: bent valve/compression

you could also do a cylinder leakage test.... that would even let you know which valve is bent

Pop the valve covers and the loose rocker arm is the bent valve.
