Default ACR on a K-301

Guess its time for an over haul. My 1200 is getting very hard to start seems low on compression and is using oil like no tomorrow (half a quart and hr). But until I can get the funds to rebuild it, would it hurt to undo the ACR springs on the cam and run it? Will it destroy the springs? Was thinking that may make is least easier to start. I have taken them loose on another engine and did a compression test from the bench then reattached them so I do know what they look like and how they attach.
