well i finally got it runnin....... for about 15 minutes but then, wait a minute, it runnin like crap again. so i checked the timing and compression since i just did the head and it was ok, a lil above 160 across the board. so i look around and i see that the wastegate actuator isnt connected to the flapper anymore and is holding it wide open. the damn pin broke off inside of it. is there anything i can do besides attemping to drill it out. if i must then i must but just checking options first. also could running no boost foul out my plugs. it start runnin a lil funny on the way home. thanks.
 
the cotter pin broke off inside of the wasgate swingarm thing. so now my wastegate wont stay closed
 
Yeah but that hole is tiny as hell, just push the pin out with a needle or something and get a new cotter pin :)
 
i would but the car was sitting before i bought it and it rusted in there. i've broken 2 drill bits already. am i using the wrong kinda bit? By the way were ya from. I used to live in levittown before i moved to ga
