O.K. new question when you do a compression test how do you know if you need piston rings or the pistons themselves that are bad ?

[beyondloadedSE]

the psi in the blown cylinder would be a lot lower than the good ones.

Thank you again so it is only the rings then? now my battery is getting to much power and I am trying to find the source of the sparking, but you have been really wonderful and helpful thanks again.
