U check compression with a compression tester. Basically its just a tube that screws in your spark plug whole and pressurizes that cylinder and combustion chamber. But no need to do the whole seafoam thing right off that bat. Just check comp. and if its bad in a certain cylinder then just put a small amount of oil in that cylinder, if that brings up compression then its your rings. Yeah but like everyone else my 5s burned oil for a few years, i would add about a quart a week and it would be fine.
