RE: Low Compression ???
hi you left out the most important picture- that of the cylinder walls do replace the ring -it is a cheep fix and can bring the engine back to life ( ring tension may be gone from too much heat- low oil )-clean the piston with a stay bright sponge-cross sand the cylinder walls with 320 emery and oil- at a 45% angles reassemble and break in the new ring-while apart do check the rod for bushing were- (top and bottom ) if worn -consider replace it-do consider these costs -applied to the purchase of a new engine-
