Have you tried pulling all of the plugs out and holding a thumb over each of the plug holes while someone cranks the engine? It should be doing the suction thing on intake stroke, and pressure on compression stroke. That should tell you if the valves are opening and closing. Also, can you get into the cylinder with a small light and dental mirror? (Some time ago, I found a small dental mirror with a little LED light built into it. Neat!) That should be able to tell you if the valves are opening and closing. Just don't bust your mirror when a piston comes up!
