    For 12 bucks, this is an invaluable tool for having a look at things like plug threads, combustion chamber, even the valves. It comes with 90deg viewing adapters; which I recommend you secure VERY WELL if you choose to use them. I spent an hour retrieving one from my engine; it wasn't fun.

    Update:

    Got OEM springs and cats from Joe Walsh. Installed no problems.

    Replaced entire front suspension and rear shocks. Aligned to carfix specs (almost).

    Defrost only fixed with o rings from Agent2006.

    Oil filter adapter plate gasket replaced. Fixed. Pain in the butt to oil filter on.

    Replaced o rings on power steering hoses. Hopefully fixed.

    Today had intermittent wiper problem. Would not come on. Then they decided to work later. Stopped working...then started working again. Next problem ...

    Replaced cylinder G COP. Hopefully end to engine light.

    Still need to diagnose engine knock. May need some local help on that one.

    Passed Maryland inspection.

    Getting there ....

    Just a suggestion, but I would replace all the COP's and plugs at the same time.

    So you have a misfire on cylinder 7 and an engine knock?...if so, there’s a chance you have the valve seat issue in the D/S cylinder head. Just something to keep in mind as a possibility.
