Compression loss or injector wash down? 850 1995

I recently got a great deal on a 140,000 mile 850. The problem is that since it has turned cold any kind or short trip (noving in and out of the drive way)
causes it to be hard to start. I pulled the fuel rail and checked for leaking
injectors. They were not leaking, but i could not (don't know how) to check
the spray pattern. Having said all that, the compression was as follows
cyl 1 170, cyl 2 80, cyl 3 80, cyl 4 75 cyl 5 170.
Is it possible the injectors are dumping fuel into the cylinders and washing
the oil out or is this wishful thinking.
I did put some oil in the cylinders and retest all cylinders were normal.
any help is appreciated.
