I need to set up the wastegate on my 300tdi and I can't find any setting guides for the actuator rod. Does it require a preload, Or does the actuator rod just slip on the spindle with engine off? I may be blind, but I can't find anything in the WSM for this. Any ideas? TIA.

I couldn't see mine either, but as I have taken off the manifold and turbo together due to a broken linkage I can set it up while I can see it so I need to get it right the first time otherwise I'll need to be a Houdini with eyes on the end of antenae!
