the compression coming out of the sump could be a lot of things - really well-stuck rings or a very worn engine, but if she's still runnijng I'd be inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Let's see what you need to do;

1. pull the engine and replace ALL the core plugs

2. check all the pistons and valves for sticking rings and stuff - maybe fit new rings.

3. check the block for cracks between the cylinders.

.... if everything looks OK try again - maybe add a new water distribution tube too.
