the nose (thin pipe) on the wastegate actuator has dried up oil in it. i dont know how it got there. bought the turbo and just noticed that.

I'd use a q-tip and some mineral spirits. If it isn't effecting anything just let it go...

i doubt a q tip will fit cuz its a small hole. i plan on using a mechanical boost controller which will need a hose to be connected to the actuator. thats y i need to get the oil buildup out of the wga nose.
