If the piston is cracked, it will have low compression compared to the others. It can also knock. If you suspect one, bring it up to TDC and rig an air hose to the plug hole. Take off the breather cap and pump a 50 pounds of air into the combustion chamber and see if much air flows out the breather tube.
