Maybe, maybe not. What were the other cylinder PSI? Could be something as simple as valve adjustment. Did you check the valve clearances?

How long did the engine sit unused? I had one that sat for year. Not enough compression to even start, tried for weeks. Rings were dry. Poured 1/4 teaspoon motor oil in each hole, it literally roared to life within 1.5 seconds on the starter!
Startled everyone in the shop.

Very strong runner after that.
