A leaking head gasket is part of your compression issue but the fact that the exhaust valve isn't opening is another part of the problem. If the engine can't get air into the cylinder, then there's no air to compress.

You know what? That did not cross my mind. Even if the head gasket was good there still would not be any compression since the intake valve is not opening. Exactly like you said, there would not be any air to compress.

I meant to say intake valve, not exhaust valve.

I caught the drift of what you were saying and it mskes prefect since to me. That is why I like to post here. Sometimes I am just to close to the sitsuation to see everything clearly. You fine fellers have a third party view and are able to see things from different angles.
Big thanks to everyone.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
