Have to agree with you - I'd expect something on the readout. If you've taken both plugs out though - it won't test properly - one plug from each rotor - and open the throttles.
If it really is reading nothing then that means the air has gone somewhere else - which can only spell trouble !

I'm guessing you have tried it with the plug out just spinning over to see if there is any Compression on said rotor?
Note....There was a story a while back of a guy who used a stock Boinger comp tester who damaged all three Apex's due to the comp tester protruding into the bore, you probably already know this but you should always offer up the plug to the Threaded part of the Comp tester to make sure its not too long :(

It worked fine on the rear rotor 4 bar if i didnt keep the release valve pressed in, and jumped up to 3 everytime when i did, but front one was missing lol

No he didnt, unfortuanteley it needed to be out of garage that day, so the guy who bought my Yellow vert, and my white EGI bought it
Kept the front splitter though, not sure how much that is worth lol
