Turbo/Wastegate Issue Posted by Go_Bucks [Email] (#846) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Go_Bucks) on Thu, 9 Oct 2008 09:21:36 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I bought a 95 CSE about a year ago. In really good condition, the price was right, and I really love it. When I bought it, the owner mentioned that he had adjusted the wastegate to cut out sooner than normal as he had let his son drive it for a month, and didn't want him pushing it too hard. Sounded legit at the time, and since I don't have a lead-foot, I have not adjusted it.
About 2 weeks ago I noticed that the wastegate was activating much sooner than before. In fact, before I get much boost it starts sputtering. I don't know anything about turbos really, but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how to proceed to test this. Thanks!
