Is this enough for valvetrain repair?

Stress!

I'd hate for my wrangler's engine to opened up at the dealer for the summer waiting for parts. Its why I ask. But I guess 'its all good' as they say nowadays.

But, yeah, let's get a Dx first.

The parts are readily available. I took my Jeep into a shop in Iowa while traveling to Moab from Michigan. They fixed it in one day. I called them Thursday morning, dropped it off mid afternoon on a Thursday and they had it back to me by Friday at 2 PM. They replaced the passenger side cam and lifters.

You can buy a $100 borescope on Amazon and pull the cam sensor out of the valve cover and see if you can wind your way over to the center cylinder intake lobe on the passenger side, since that's the most common lobe to fail.

Looking for a reason to get one of those flippy-toggle borescopes. But isn't this the perfect definition of "just looking for trouble" ?

You mean; "if I don't look, it isn't there?"
