Heres a lil test. Put a cap full of oil down the number two cyl. Re install compression tester and see if the compression changes, if it jumps up to near normal for a second or two, then it is most likely bad rings. If it doesnt change, then it is a head or valve issue.

It could also be a blown head gasket, cracked head or sticking valve take the valve cover off and make sure the valve or valves arnt stuck open.
