Default no compression no start timing ?

ok i have a 92 accord with a 2.2 l going down the road and died like it ran out of gas timing belt was bad changed belt made sure everything was timed double and triple checked still no start checked spark and have spark
also have fuel have not done fuel pressure test yet but plugs get wet
did compression check and found have no compression none zero nada
there is air coming out of cylinders but not enough to resigter on compression guage i was thinking bent valve but when cranking it valve train seems to be fine besides if it bent valves not every cylinder would be affected right? i have no clue where to look i have read about the cylinder
position sensor that is intergrated in to the distributor could that be it?

any help would be appreciated
thanks
brad

It is possible that all cylinders have bent valves. Since you measure zero compression, my first guess is you're measuring it wrong. If that's not the case, my second guess is several bent valves.

ok my compression tester maybe a little worn but i believe she still works
if the timing is off it should still have compression right? i will get a new tester to double check also what about that cps sensor is that not
a possibility?

There should be a 7.5 Amp fuse in the under-hood fuse box that will disable the ECU and fuel injection.

It will disable fuel injection if you disable it. It is what I pull to do a compression test.

hey i have a quick question if the balance shaft is not 100% lined up
will this keep it from starting? i wouldnt think so but you never know
i believe the pulley im talking about is directly to the right of crankshaft just
up a little it has a dot but it is not 100% but everything else is.

If the timing belt is a little off, it should have some compression. It would have to be really far off to get zero.

If the balance shaft is off, the engine should start & run. But it'll vibrate badly.

Don't forget, you were driving down the road when the timing belt broke. You still have the possiblilty of bent valves in all 4 cylinders.
