Anybody know of an inexpensive bore scope or small camera that can be used to look around in the cylinders? If camera, I'm guessing this would be USB plug into laptop. I'm curious what lurks inside without pulling the heads. I used to have a little light pipe that I used on rifles to check the bore, but it is a bit large to get inside the spark plug hole along with a miniature light.

If the motor is a cross flow, pull the transfer covers and have a look. If it is aloop-charged motor, it will likelynot have removeable transfer covers
