OK, thanks man.

I emailed the guy my offer, and told him it was subject to Mantis doing a full PPI with leak-down/scope of cylinders, etc. My offer included that I'd send him half of the cost of the inspection as a good faith gesture, and to show I am serious. Mantis is 2 hours away and I cannot co-ordinate from here. The seller is semi-retired, so this should not be a hassle for him.

If that is a go, I'll call the service guy I spoke to prior to my test drive to make sure they pull codes as part of the inspection. My thought it that should be included.

If the seller says he has no time, or doesn't want to be bothered with the PPI, I will walk.
