I'm rebuilding my Dads engine, I've stripped the engine down to find that it's already +020. Does anyone know what pistons these are? On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

They look similar to my AE turbo pistons especially the skirts but the numbers don't match & after going into the garage it would appear that the no. of rings are wrong.

I'd say they're bog standard 1275GT/Allegro pistons. Do the crowns say M2210? On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

is there any way of checking rings for wear? Put the rings in the bore and measure the gaps with a feeler gauge. Also measure the clearance between the ring and the ring grove (sorry don't know the proper name) with a feeler gauge, not really checking the rings here as the softer pistons tend to wear first. If that doesn't make sense let me know and I'll take some photos of what I mean, sadly I don't have a chesty lass to pose in the background. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

They look very much like a set of standard replacement 1098cc +20 Hepolite pistons I bought about 12 years ago for my then road car Clubman estate.

Better to get new rings as if the engine they were in overheated in its life, they will have lost their tension.
