I am trying to replace my spring on my HKS external wastegate. I have all 4 of the allen bolts out and the cover will not come off its almost like something inside is holding it on.
Am I retarded did I miss something? |

A couple of pics to show you whats up.

another angle - do I pull off the red diaphram to get the cover off??
|
It looks like it should just come right off now.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif

Yep, should come right off.. the only thing I can think of is maybe the sping is stuck fairly tight in the holders... give it a yank..
|
And when you're done giving it a yank....see if you can pull the wastegate apart https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

So basically I need to stop being a ***** and give it a good yank.
Thanks!! I was afraid I would break something. |
just try no to tear the diaphram..
|
I didn't it took a little wiggling but it came off. I am going to have to look into a custom setup soon. The wastegate housing touches my downpipe. I do not like how tight a fit it is. I am sure this will affect it in the long run.
Right now I am shopping for some piping to run to and from the wastegate instead of rubber hose. |
put a small dent in your down pipe, problem solved.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
Run Stainless Steel hose to and from the wasgate.. you can get it and all the -an fittings from www.summitracing.com |
