My car has started to run like hell, so I did a compression test on it, Im not sure how the cylinders are numbered, but I went left to right. The one on the far left is at 0 psi, the next two at 185 and the one all the way to the right is at 0 psi. What do you guys think? Just a ring job, or do you think im going to have to replace all the pistons as well? and bore it? I guess I'll find out as soon as I tear it apart. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks
 
Sounds like you bent some valves. Have you pulled the valve cover off and taken a look at the valvetrain?
 
The only time i have seen two at zero they were the always next to each other and the head gasket was blown between them, could also be a valvetrain problem, good luck
