Nice bore scope, and nice find.

Never do a one Valve Valve job you’re just asking for trouble down the road. When you get the head of the vehicle do a complete head overhaul and even shave the head.A rounded valve margin or valve touliping is a sign of trouble which could also be caused by a Loose valve guide. Tearing down motors for 20 years I have learned that the first thing to go on most engines the top ring on the piston, exhaust valve guide and/or exhaust valve.Back in the 80s, LOL I saw my first endoscope in a Mercedes-Benz dealership and it blew my mind. Great review. Keep on rockin

I literally just did this an hour ago for a P0300 on an LS2 engine. Cylinder 6 plug was cracked. Bank 2 O2 went bad as well from dumping fuel for too long.

Tuesday McNamara will clean "Idle Air" something; Thought it would take R&R but Steve says just to clean it▬ 2001 Silverado W and likely low compression on #1 but attained stable improved by use of Iridium Distributor cap

The more I dig, the more similarities I find between the X431 and the Zurich Pro. I found X431 files on my Zurich... (I have a hard time running these test in my Crown Victoria, but they're the same...)

I hope those piston nicks are indeed cutouts for valve spaceing when tooling virgin engines.

Hi Ivan, some questions: Can you playback videos/images from NTS500? Can Launch works on hybrid & Tesla cars & reset/program TPMS for vechiles?

Can you save the pictures and print them of the 2 valves to show the customer? Very cool tool!

I like the diag. Is it worth asking why one valve did that? Maybe it’ll happen again. (It’ll be another owner by then.)

man, no bonus footage! Cool tool.

Hey so cylinder 1 will need a new spark plug? Or what else will be done?

@Cheepchipsable

He loves it. Has had it for a while. Check his videos, he does a comparison with a couple of other scan tools.

i wonder if the guide backed out/moved or ran low/out of oil and the timing set is shot, it's possible to bend a single valve out of a pair, tolerances are never perfect. only other thing, is the seat moved from being overheated, which would mean warped head, gasket, block sealer in it. best bet, just slam in used engine

I just have to laugh when the auction guy says it must be the computer. When in fact with most any electrical issue, that's what I look at as last on the list of possibilities. I like that scope, affordable too. Just curious if you do an injector leakdown test when you have a valve problem like that, or do you check that when the valve has a chunk of metal out of it?

I'd say head ,gaskets and timing set. Because new complete head is around the same price as sending it to the machine shop.

And I say the timing set because odds are it hasn't been done but that's where you talk to the customer oh wait auction car so he doesn't know.

Easy and cheap repair , if the valve are not bend then, adjust the valve and add 0.5 mm extra valve clearance drive the care the valve will most likely reseal , check valve clearance after a month leave it lose for another month , your car should be back to full compression

95% of computers replaced by weekend mech are good, no diag skills must be computer then. And more problems are created by bad cheap after market parts, then Ivan gets it. Sometimes diag is 90% of repair.

I swear I saw dents in the piston and corresponding dents in the exhaust valves, in piston heads could be fly cuts or casting impressions to give clearance for valves but never in valves because they are usually set up to rotate to reduce wear and localized heating, odd.

@@bryanlatimer-davies1222 A look at the bottom side of the head would be more practical, if the engine has high miles and the oil pump is at rear of engine, it's not uncommon for the valves in No. 1 cylinder to get sluggish from oil starvation and over heating, the oil is also a coolant. I've seen computer simulations of worn guides with insufficient lube, worn valve stems in said guides, high rpm, high heat and a peculiar thing occurs a harmonic vibration is set up and causes the valve stem to rock in the guide and for a micro-second the valve locks and is struck by the piston, also because of uneven oil distribution the front valve springs usually relax, old age helps.

That's cheating, but I cheat as well, just hook the air into the cylinder and listen for escaping air. I don't do traditional leak down testing, don't even own a tester. As a retired heavy line tech from Ford dealers it was never a necessity. Management wanted me to have one, but what the hell do they know. I always had some idiot manager second guessing my work, but every time they challenged me, I proved they were full of shit. I took to working under the maple trees at home rather than constantly battling idiot managers. That same dealer in Santa Barbara was closed by Ford for fraud perpetrated by these same managers. The Ford rep said "Congratulations, you guys are number one in the nation, on warranty claims, I am here to audit you" That is when I decided to move out of State and do my own thing. I didn't mind service writers, but, managers are totally useless.
