A home mechanic could do this for less than $1000 but he would be skipping many performance and reliability repairs as he has the engine apart.
you take the top off then take the piston with the shaft out and put new rings lol its easy im 11.
it either needs new rings on pistios or one piston is cracked causing blow by or ... blow by is when compression escapes your piston..
You don't. The only solution to damaged piston rings is to take the engine block out of the car and replace the rings.

How much does a car cost?
you bring it to a shop
you don't fix piston rings. if you have bad rings you have to pull the piston and replace them. on most vehicles you have to pull the engine, then you take off the heads and oil pan. unbolt the caps from the bottom of the rod and push it out the top.
If you are mechanically inclined it is cheaper to replace the entire engine
