I have a 38mm Tial Wastegate. The housing (the polished part the holds the spring etc) spins around freely. I don't think this is supposed to be happening, but this is my first external wastegate so i don't know. I can't seem to figure out how it got loose or how to tighten it. Can someone please shed some light on this for me? Thanks.

 

anyone??

 

pretty sure it isn't supposed to do that. Are the hex screws tight od loose?

 

yea all the screws etc are on tight, i don't undertsand how it could be doing it but it is.

 

mine did this too. I spun it to the right hoping it would tighten just incase and it worked. has stayed tight ever since But hopefully this works for you! Good Luck

 

i've tried spinning it right but can't seem to get anywhere with it, did you push down or pull up,a nything special like that? or maybe mine's just screwed up, hope not, i'll try spinning it some more.

also, if it doesn't stop spinning, think this will effect its usefulness?
