I have to add, I had been blithely thinking, and probably saying, that 
that couldn't be the problem.

But of course it could - if the intake valves are not opening or barely 
opening, there will be little or nothing to "compress".

PS, I lost in the mists of time, who did the injector replacement? 
Owner or mechanic?  I got the impression it was the owner but I am 
beginning to suspect I am wrong.
