A couple questions I work up with this morning since all this has been running through my mind:

1) Does it appear likely that the symptoms I mentioned BEFORE I cleaned the carbs are relevant or related to the dead/weak cylinder (other than the carbon and valve theory)? I'm referring to it temporarily cutting out or sputtering mid-throttle.

2) Would a WET compression test temporarily seal the valves in the same way it does bad rings?
