A technician performing a cylinder compression test on a four-stroke internal combustion engine finds that one cylinder has significantly lower pressure than the others. When a small amount of engine oil is added to the cylinder and the test is repeated, the pressure reading increases significantly. What is the most likely cause of the low compression?
