I just completed the compression check and the results are in and I dont think they look too good


Cylinder 1 50psi
Cylinder 2 185psi
Cylinder 3 200psi
Cylinder 4 185psi
Cylinder 5 0psi
Cylinder 6 190psi


I decided to squirt a little oil in cylinder 5 and got 50psi the second time.
The one thing I notice was a different sound when I was checking 5. I guess it was the sound of no compression.

So I guess my question is "now what?" Valve job?
Any idea of what this might cost to have someone do this?

Thanks for all the help
Neil
