Can anyone tell me the size of the e-clip required for the actuator rod on the gt17 turbos? I've dropped mine down the back of the engine somewhere and now lost so need to get another.

I just use lock wire as I have lost loads. Plus it's much easier. I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

You must have shares in lockwire Si! If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |
