ISUZU 4WD

Unscrew the Nuts
Two nuts on the bottom of the actuator secure it to the flat metal piece connected to the turbo. Remove these nuts to remove the turbo later, and ensure it doesn't fall out of place once you remove them. The two wrenches you have will have the most effect on different nuts.

Remove the Actuator Clip
The actuator clip is a small metal piece that holds the clevis in place while it's connected to the wastegate. The clip remains fastened tightly, but it's easy to remove with the flathead screwdriver. Lodge the screwdriver between the clip and the peg that the clevis holds onto and pry the clip away until it releases its grip.

Remove the Actuator
Once you've removed the nuts and the clip, you may remove the actuator from the turbo's structure. Remove the clevis from the wastegate, and the actuator should slide out easily. Once the actuator is away from the turbo, you must remove it from the metal "cradle" that holds it.

Adjust the Length of the New Actuator
Along the end link is a nut that you may tighten or loosen to control its length. Align the end-link on your new actuator to match the length of the old one to ensure the new one functions the same. An improper length will result in too much or too lttle mobility in its reach to the wastegate.

Install and Replace Parts
After completing these steps, you'll need to replace everything where it once was. Start by placing the actuator in its original position and place the end-link and pegs into their respective holes. Place the clevis over the wastegate and the actuator clip over it to secure it by nudging it back into place with the screwdriver.
