1) While applying the air, the engine was at a position where both of that cylinder’s valves SHOULD have been closed, correct?

2) I don’t know if you ever shared. Which cylinder # we talking about?

3) If rotating the engine by hand, do the valves on the offending cylinder SEEM to move up and down the same distance as the other cylinders? (That’s not a great test, by any means. But it might tell us something if there’s a really obvious difference)
