Boy I sure manhandled that O-Ring. I managed to remove the two bolts holding the pipe to the turbo -- major PITA, then I disconnected the E-clip on the wastegate actuator rod, and unbolted the actuator. The pipe came free very easily but I only had 1/2 an O-ring. I found the other half of the O-Ring in the Bottom of the oil pan, I managed to fish it out after draining the oil. I guess I learned the hard way that the O-Ring should be placed on the tube first, not set in the block. Now, I need a source for that little bugger and the upper gasket as well. Does anyone know whoe stocks them. I wasnt able to find them @ FCP or thepartsbin.com.


Thanks,
Matt
