OK, good, so, we can get a bore scope in there......

I wonder if a scope can be placed in there to see the TOB while the engine is running .. ??

If so, I wonder if a TOB bearing, that is going bad, would wobble or smoke or show any other signs of getting bad...??

Let's brainstorm this possible diagnostic method to sense a failing TOB ..
