Excellent Video about cylinders and valves

Post by GAHorn »

This is one of the better vids I’ve seen demonstrating boroscoping cyls and valves.

Borescoping. You’re scoping a bore.

Sorry if I’m a bore to care about spelling.

The more you do it the better you will get, the limitation is really the equipment. Boro of a cylinder is easy, unlikely you will get lost maybe interpreting the results a bit harder. Resolution is everything.
