Er, not really. It got it's compression back after I played with the timing a bit. My assumption is that with the timing so far off, the valves and cylinders were seriously out fo whack and probably led to a reading of 0 compression. It was sugegsted that I might not have gotten the test gauge screwed in all the way, which might also be the case. I've not rechecked since I got the engine running again. I'm somewhat curious as my most recent test gave me numbers that were all over the place. However, even then they were all >150.
