for $200 he can pay a mechanic to fix the freeze plugs.
what the hell does he need a borescope for.

Yes, for the little use I would get out of a borescope it's much better to pay a mechanic that cash to fix it. This is a second car....I may end up just getting rid of it. We'll see.

Going to try the powder first.

Thanks again to everyone who replied. Much appreciated.

im really sorry for making a suggestion. i hate the idea of pouring any kind of mechanic in a can into a vehicle. im a firm believer of doing the job right doing it once after all my job requires that because if i screw up, miss something, people could get injured or die

shelbydaytona,

Naw, your suggestion was a good one. but for someone like me who will use the scope once in 10 blue moons, the money is best spent with a mechanic to take care of it.

Again, Thanks to all who replied.
