Low compression test vs leaking injector possibility in my thread (link) got no respect.

Check out link for fuel pressure regulator, leak down test that can spot leaking injectors.

Bad ring, broken ring, or bad bore is not the only potential cause. My low cylinder jumped all the way from 60 up to 175 psi with a good shot of Marvel Mystery oil in the cylinder. Seems like too much gain.
Let the engine cool down enough to remove the plugs and the wash down from a leaking injector is long since complete. Right?
Might a couple of treatments of Techron clear up the problem?
