Default can anyone identify this piston?
I need to know what this piston is but I'm not sure which code to go by, theres loads stamped in there...heres what it says!

Ford Mahle
1.5+
84V144
84 St 76 (*)
F061
M279A

Thats all the marks on it, the * is a plate on the piston rather than cast into it

any ideas which code tells me what it is?!

84mm piston 1.5mm oversised! (sheer guess work)

Looks like the M279A may welll be Mahle's id relating to the piston.

What did it come out of?
