Since the OP never told us, we have no idea.

I suspect is the problem existed between the chair and keyboard, what we used to call a PEBCAK issue in my line of work.

If you are asking because you have a similar problem, check the valve timing and adjustment. Bad valve timing/adjustment is about the only common mistake I can think of that is likely to cause very low but equal compression on all four cylinders, unless the pistons/rings/valve seats/boring were done incorrectly but the same way on all four. Bad valve timing is far more likely than that.
