Sounds like you could have some stuck rings in that one cylinder. I try a couple things first I'd put some oil in it some thing like PB blaster or marvel mystery oil etc and let it sit a couple days. Then I'd drain the radiator and start it up and let it get warm, not real hot but up to a little more then normal temp and shut it down, let it cool and put back the coolant and fire it up and get it warm and then check compression it maybe like it should be then. The oil will start getting the rings loose and then running it till its a little warm will help it to pop the rings loose. I run all my tractors that I'm just getting up that way to make sure the rings are loose or to get them loose
