Unhappy 120 Compression problem

I have just rebuilt my 23 000mile estelle engine to find that one of the cylinders isnt compressing and flames are coming back up the carburettor. Does anyone know how to solve this without removing the head and taking the valves out again?

Set the tappets again , sounds like the inlet valve is not shutting fully on that cylinder
