If it were mine!!
I would Turn the engine 90 degrees from TDC (assuring no pistons at the top). I would remove the valve cover and rocker assembly. I would then spray Tri-Flow lubricant on each valve stem where it comes out of the guide. Using a plastic hammer, I would rap on each valve while blowing a blast of air into the sparkplug hole with an air nozzle (not an adapter, it does not need pressure). I would use enough force to move the valve down, but not smash the spring to coil bind. The intent is to clear dirt that may be keeping the compression low.
Install the valve train and set the valves (cold) to cold spec. On each cylinder adjust the intake when the exhaust just starts to move. Adjust the exhaust when the intake just starts to move. Be sure to look at the runners and ports to be sure which valve is which.
This has worked for me to reseat sticky valves.
