danpug 1 Posted November 17, 2009 The actuator on the engine i've bought has had a fair knock by the looks of things and have dented a fair bit. Would it still b useable like this or do i need a new one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablo 0 Posted November 17, 2009 does the arm pull in and out ok? If its just a little ding to the casing its prob ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Fenton 1,526 Posted November 17, 2009 Easy enough to test it, just rig up a bicycle pump or similar and make sure it moves OK when you apply pressure to the pipe inlet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danpug 1 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) It moves only the very slightest bit so i guess it needs replacing. Is it a 406/xm specific part? Wheres the best place to get one? Edited November 19, 2009 by danpug Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablo 0 Posted November 19, 2009 it would only move maybe 1/2" ish? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danpug 1 Posted November 19, 2009 I think this is moving less than that, its hard to make it move as well. The wastegate opens maybe 1 or 2mm? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
