comp question

generally yes, 20-Megs is fine,  but you should test all three terminals to the compressors dome. also did you test the terminal to terminal ohms reading? ( testing for an open start winding basically) once the resistance readings are complete ( assuming it all checks out OK) you could try to hook up the 3-in-1 starter again. & maybe do a current test to check for a locked rotor...

It tested 20 plus megs on start pin, nothing on run pin or common. got 18 volts resistance from start to run pins, nothing from start to comon or from run to commomn. but there is continuity from the start and common pins when you ground on the dome of the compressor. its shot for shure lol bummer.

Yep. toe-tag it & time for a new unit.
