1984 hot air. The waste gate lever when disconnected has a travel of approx 90 degrees. However the when conneted the vacum actuator, I can only get the vacum actuator to move the gate only about 45 degrees. How much should the wast gate open?
How far should the vacum actuator move the waste gate lever?
I connected the vacum test tool to the drivers side port of the actuator and it will pull about 25 inches and hold. When connected to the passenger side port it will only pull about 20 inches and bleeds off slowly. I am wondering if the waste gate vacum actuator is bad?
The engine will only pull about 8 to 9 inches of boost. I live in Colo at about 5000 ft of altitude.
