How do you check the engine pistons of a 1998 Saturn SL1?

The only way to "check" a piston would be to remove it and visually inspect for damage and wear.Make certain that the piston is not cracked or otherwise damaged.check the ring grooves. Use a piston ring and a set of feeler gauges to determine the amount of wear. Excessive ring groove wear can result in piston failure and if the piston shatters, it can cause the engine to fail completely.Next, use a micrometer to determine the difference in the diameter of the piston between the top and bottom. The piston will wear and if the difference between the top and bottom is too great, the engine will exhibit "piston slap".Check the fit of the wrist pin, it should be tight.HOWEVERYou can run a compression test and get a good idea whether the piston is functioning somewhat correctly.

What are the numbers on a piston ring for... As in like .75 .50?

The numbers like .75 .50 indicate the oversize of the piston ring that will be used for repair. For instance if the engine has a diameter of 70 mm and you need to open the cylinder bore for repair in .50 mm, you need to use one piston ring with diameter 70.50 mm.
