one cylinder no compression?
trying to help my buddy he, he has a miss at about 4500 rpm so we pulled the plugs everything looked good, so we did a compression test and on number 7 we are getting erratic pressure sometimes we get 120psi and 90 psi and then it will crank for a while and have no compression, all the rest of the cylinders have 145psi. no miss down low and it sounds great? can it be a valve? i dont understand how we can sometimes have compression. its a chevy 572 big block
thanks
thanks

I snapped a rocker stud on the exhaust side once...broke a rocker arm in half once...seized a lifter once, etc, etc, etc.
