No. If it minor pitting, honing the cylinder may be enough. If it is deep, it will need to be bored and an oversize piston used or the cylinder can be sleeved.

How do you repair a 4th cylinder with no compression in a 1999 ford escort?

I suspect the valve seat in the no. 4 cylinder has dropped and has been hammered by the piston into the head. If the piston is all right you will have to put a used or rebuilt head on it. If the piston or the sides of the cylinder wall are scored you will have to take the engine out of the car and repair the no. 4 piston and will possibly have to have the no. 4 cylinder bored out to the next size. It isn't a fluke that the valve seat dropped. Anyone who has worked on Escorts wil tell you they have seen it time and time again.
