Any suggestions for an ill 406

I have a 406 HDI 110 Executive Estate on x-reg.
No4 cylinder has no compression, do I strip down the engine to find the fault and repair, or replace engine, or scrap/sell for parts?
Any help/advise in this matter would be much appreciated.
Thanking you in advance.

Re: HDI Compression tester

After my compression test, cylinders 1, 2, and 3 are fine at 290, all the same, but ZERO on 4 cylinder.

Last weekend, took off the top cover and checked, all looked ok at the top, however I could hear sucking and blowing, not a great deal but noticable.

So could this be valves or rings?

Re: HDI Compression tester

Was let down with Tester, so I swopped over two injectors (Cyl 3 & 4) , again pulled off the connector and Cyl 3 stalled the car Cyl 4 run lumpy still (no effect).

So I can confirm it is not an injector.

Something else within the Cylinder?

Stem leaking?
Head?
Rings?
