Well, if that's the case, you'll have to pull the heads and have them remachined. Also look for something simple though...like a bent pushrod or maybe just the valves too tight. The best way to go about it is to do a compression test. That will tell you what kind of problem you have. Then (if you can) a leak-down test...that will narrow down your problem to exactly where to look.

Pull the cover and let us know what you find. If it's a stuck valve, most likely, you'll find the keepers came off.

well all the compressions are good in the rest of the cylinders, i know the guy who has my car said every other cylinder has great compression, just none in the number 2 cylinder.
