Hey Teri, nice hearing from you again.  I thought maybe you'd gotten off the
list.

Let's quantify that by saying "a little oil".  Enough oil will always raise
the compression reading, even if it's valves instead of rings, just because
the oil doesn't compress.  Even a little oil will raise the reading some.
