    As title my EV engine is ready to have Pistons put back
    In.i did jot down some info prior to disassembly but just
    Dosnt seem right I've noted that piston raised part faces
    Front of engine(towards dipstick).but this conflicts with
    The crown arrow,as that would make the arrow markers
    Face the flywheel.just double checking that all piston arrows always
    Face the cambelt end and my notes were wrong when written
    Down at the time.
