It seems like somthing happened to the piston or valves. A whole in the piston or it broke, or it might be a stuck valve.

They are also known to blow head gaskets and send your compression down the oil journals. Does it blow oil out the vent tube when you try to start it?

The 85 200X I had merely blew out the head gasket too....

Unless you heard a bunch of rackett (sorry - didn't read whole post...) then it may be an easy fix!

take the head off and check out the damage. Bet it is a head gasket
