Low or no compression in a cylinder is due to bad piston rings or a burnt valve, even a blown head gasket.

Nope that is not the issue. If it is like mine, it has to be something electrical. Runs fine then at a light will stall and re-start no compression. Turn it off wait 30 second re-start and it runs fine - something is going but just not sure what???

I don't think the people asking questions here have any idea what compression is.
