Is there an inspection camera that can be sent through the injector hole in the cylinder head to inspect the glowplugs to see if they are swelled up?

Anybody done this?

Any other uses for an inspection camera for idi maintenance and troubleshooting?

A bore scope with a small end, you could use it to inspect bore, rings, valves, gear wear, and other misc things.

Yes there great for everything you can check head gaskets and everything also works great to see if turbo pedistal is leaking.

It would have to be a really small boroscope to fit into the injector pintle bore then if/when you get in there, I doubt you could see it. Those precups are about as roomy as a pop-up camper's bathroom.
