I think the "sparkling" or "flaking" on Cyl1 is significant enough to look into. Cyl3 actually looks quite healthy to my eyes, but again, could be the photo. Looks like there's a little bit of a shadow on Cyl3 tip so it may be hiding the "flaking"/"sparkling".

From the pic though, funny enough, Cyl3 looks the best out of them all.. at least to my eyes. LOL

My only thing is that none of the plugs look bad enough to justify the “hide cylinder” which is why I’d think injectors.

Borescoped the cylinders and here's what I found. What am I looking at on the tops of the pistons in 1 and 2? Wish I could have gotten better photos and video, but I don't have the dopey adapter.

What would you suggest? Injectors? 70k on the odometer. A little surprised… I hardly ever see any knock retard.

Part out?
