Funny story to go with my knowledge of this aspect. Maybe about 1973 or so - bought a 1968 Toyota Corona 2 door HT - cute car - for $35 - needed an auto trans (BW35) and what I thought would be a valve job - ran but had a miss. Used trans went in and head came off. I'm looking at 2 pistons at the same height and 2 at different heights. Tapped one with a screwdriver and it dropped to the level of the other. The piston top had broken all around a ring land. Bought a used piston and a gasket set and we had a car to drive for under $200. Sold later for $600. Volvos were still 2 years off (1965 544). -- Dave
