Some Advice Needed Please, Poorly Cup!!



  172 Cup & Black Ph1
Went for a drive in my 172 cup which has been faultless till now for 2 years went over a slight hump in a country lane at the top of 3rd then followed a misfire at 7500k then it just died? when i stopped there was smoke coming out of the airbox and dipstick? any ideas? im thinking its starved of fuel when i went over the hump as i was on the way to get fuel so fuel was low too, but now when i try and start it, it sounds like there is no compression? bent valves maybe? hope this isnt too badly damaged and maybe someone can help and advise me? lol cheers #whatawolly
