"While doing the compression test, I noticed that there's NO air/fuel jet from ANY of the cylinders."

I know you're usually working the car by yourself, so I have to ask... how are you cranking the engine during the compression test? I'm typing this without looking up the wiring details, but depending on the setup, using a remote starter switch can bypass the starter signal to the ECU. IIRC, that signal must be present for the injectors to fire when engine speed is below 100 rpm.
