How do you measure the size of piston you need for your engine block?

If you pull the cylinder head off (not recommended if you can't answer your won question) you can measure the inside diameter of the cylinder. This will give you the bore of the cylinder. The correct way to find out the answer though is to check a shop manual for the year, make, model and engine you're working on and GO BY THE BOOK!

Piston's seized in block?
Disassemble it as far as you can then take it to an automotive machine shop. They'll need to magnaflux and bore the engine and head(s) before you can trust it. They'll get the piston out and if the block isn't damaged beyond repair they can help get your engine back into shape.

How can you tell if your engine is non interference?
If you give the yr/make/model/engine, could let you know... But if you want to find out your self. You need to turn piston 1 to TDC and depending on the engine, undo the valve spring keeper and measure how far the valve drops until in hits the piston. Subtract .050 of an inch and if it is less than the max valve lift you have an interference engine.

What are sticky pistons in Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition used for other then sticking items to it?
That's entirely what they are used for. A normal piston will push a block up, or across, but not pull it back when it retracts. If you need the block to get pulled back, use a Sticky Piston instead.
