Not because of a rich fuel mixture. It could be the pistonrings are worn
out, or something got stuck between the piston and the cilinderwall.
Compression loss in moby engines can also ocur because of a leaking
decompressor. Or a broken sparkplug seal or cilinderhead seal (that goes
for all engines ofcourse).
