Low compression on Kohler CV740

My first question: how do I tell if my CV740 has automatic compression release. I'm told the ACR can screw up compression readings.

I tested my engine tonight and got 120psi on both cylinders. Engine hot, wide open throttle. I also let the engine run with fuel shut off until it shut off to make sure gas wouldn't wash down the cylinder walls.

The engine is low on power, oil fouls the one spark plug often and uses a lot of oil.

Can I pretty much assume its rings or should I spend the money...
