#2 cylinder has no compression
could it be a valve seal ?
 
1,320
82
0 PSI? Nothing at all?

A valve seal only restricts oil from running down from the top of the cylinder head, and onto the face of the valve, and into the cylinder, it has nothing to do with compression in the cylinder.

Sounds like your rings are completely done, or you have a burnt/sticking valve.

Maybe it's something minor like a broken connecting rod.

How does the engine run? Smoke a lot?
