Re: no compression

I am also going to torque the injector hold down nuts.

The rough running might be due to air in the fuel system, that makes the engine clatter a bit more than usual but there’s also the possibility that the precom lower chamber is mis aligned. This can only happen if the little dowel pin is missing but it’s worth a mention since the precombustion chambers were out at some point.
I did not move the lower pre-combuston chamber. I put in new upper pre-combustion chamber
I assume i would have to take of the head to remove the lower pre-combustion chamber.

Re: no compression

"A hard knock" would have me worried.

BTW I hope you used a torque wrench when reinstalling the parts...

My two cents
