When does a syringe become a piston?

When you remove outer wall?
my bad, the piston is indeed just the inner moving part, my point was that we think of syringe as easy because it is not under pressure, but if you think in terms of car piston/cylinder you appreciate more why this can't work in a rocket fuel tank.
