Heavy oil use, blue exhaust smoke, low compression or a knock on a cold start can point to worn pistons, but rings and other engine wear show up the same way. With the engine off and cool, look at the spark plugs and measure the cylinder bores before ordering; a shop can run compression and leak-down tests.
