anyone rebuild a wastegate before?
I think I didn't ask the correct question in my previous post.
Anyone ever rebuilt a wastegate before? Besides fighting spring pressure, is it hard to get the diaphragm to seat? I was having a hell of a time trying to get my kinagawa actuator diaphragm to seat, so I tried assembling it without the spring. I still could not get it to seat.
I was assuming with no spring the diaphragm should sit in the bore with ease. Sorry, I'm a newb and have pictures on my phone showing how the diaphragm is oversized for its seating
