Heck I can even check for will nots if I want! Mostly I decided it was a better one than was offered here for less. I have had very good luck with Morgan and there shipping is super cheap and delivery times are second to none.

Just be very careful with the end after inspecting the inside of a combustion chamber on a hot engine. It will NOT feel good on the inside of an ear! DAMHIKIJK!Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

The thing is that it is useful for many other purposes than just looking inside the cylinders. I can check and see if the wifes ring is in the drain again before I take the whole P-trap apart.I can look at the leak behind the motor on my car and see where it is impossible to see otherwise without an engine removal. I just know it will be useful when I drop parts and have to find them under my cabinets like the coin find. I think it will be a cool tool to own.2-79 XS1100 SF

Can any of you computor savvy folks out there tell me if a Luddite could use someting like this, without adult supervision?

For $15.49, it would almost be worth it for one use.

Just being the devils advocate, but I can pretty much see the top of the piston through the plug hole. How are you going to turn it upwards to look at the valves and such?Greg

Aw haw, I'm glad you asked, you devil, you.
When you click on the accessory icon, you will see the 90 deg side view mirror, that clips over the head.
And for only leventy seven, six fifty, a bargain. Guaranteed not to rust , bust, gather dust, rip, fray, or tear at the edges. Comes in one exciting color, and cost only pennies a day! Yes folks, you heard me right, only PENNIES a day!

The hole I found on a piston was actually at the edge... I even saw the broken ends of the pistin ring which came out of the hole. Sure, there will be applications where it can't be used but it's another weapon in the armoury for the fight against the forces of evil.....Last edited by James England; 12-23-2012, 06:03 AM.XS1100F 1980 European model.
