T2 wastegate
#21

i also have a qyestion. I attempted to screw the wastegate on my t2 but when i go to adjust the 10mm nut on the arm the whole wastegate arm itself turns. Ive tryed clamping the arm and turning the nut but it just wont come free.
Any ideas ?

time and patience is what is required here, too much of the old elbow grease and you risk damaging the actuator if you pull it too hard etc.
get a small wire brush and give it a scrub first
if its seized get some plusgas, when its cold, apply and leave, apply and leave etc, then try carefully to move it

you can also get that freeze lock stuff, which will hopefully thermal shock it into being free.
