2G Quick question about setting my timing

[Tamatalon39]

OK so I have another post about having a cyl with no c0mpression. Diagnosis was a burnt valve which i replace. upon redoing my belt timing (which I have never done on a DSM) It wont start so I check my compression again and it appears i dont have any. I lined up everything and rotated it over by hand several rotations. and nothing hit.

So my thing is I may have it off a tooth, if I do is it possible not to hit the pistons and also not build any compression?

I dont know if they are bent i had to go to work but i had it running and i pulled an injector to see if what sounded like a slight miss and after it stalled it wont start up. So i did another comp check and i am back to 0 again again it was running. Thinking i have a bad conp tester

Well anything is possible, make sure your doing the compression test right get you a timing cover like mentioned before or your asking for problems. Hope you replaced all timing components since you were there to prevent any timing mishaps, down the road.
