GAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and lots of it!

ok here's the issue;87 turboII the waste-gate (in the exhaust man.)the pin that is part of the acuating linkage(falp inside to a 3 pace rod leading to vacume canister)has gas just pooring outta it.i'm almost done with my roject car and now that i'm done with the engine i wanted to start it .yes it's flooded but there is no gas comming outta my exhaust (10''long pipe from turbo).....

so does this mean i got a bad seal arround the rod(pin),flooded with stuck wastegate?? or is there some other logical reasoning????? please help!

Dude, you should really check your spelling before you post...

If you have petrol pouring out of anywhere, you have a major problem somewhere! Are you sure it's petrol?
