1994 Other Oldsmobile Models 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 70k miles

I had a miss and a vibration found the miss to be #2 cylinder did compression test oh god "0" that is ZERO and there are no noises and no oil on plug when you run it plug out no oil there is a little carbon on the plug. Not sure what could be>>>new engine? New heads?Will remove value cover and look at lifters >>can a valve be open and not hit the piston?

thanks Bill MClary

Need model and engine size.

Try squirting 3 blasts of motor oil into the cylinder and recheck it.
If excesive fuel was in there it may have washed down the oil.
