Oil in waste gate actuator

[Luckydog32]

Finally getting my engine back together as I was cleaning up the turbo for reinstall I noticed that there was oil coming out of the waste gate actuator. Is this normal

Wow, this is a new one. I never heard of oil in there. Dont think it can be good. Get hold of Bison, im sure he can tell you what is going on.

more than likely,its the oil blowing out from the vent at the end of your right side V/cover and onto ,and all over,your actuator.

Makes sense. It was about 2 tablespoons of oil.
