    Diagnosing incipient case head separation

    I haven't seen this posted anywhere, but to be fair, I haven't read anything, but I have had good success using a borescope to see the inside of the case. I just thought it might be a handy tip for someone.

    Borescope is most certainly the best, but paperclip has alwsys worked fine.
