I already tested a wastegate the same way, and same results. I "think" that
is normal. When you'll dismantle it, you'll see the piston and its stop
ring. They are precisely machined, but they are not tight fit. I guess this
is for heat expansion.

Hi Guys,
 
quick question...on wastegate:
I am trying to set my WG to open at 14psi...
I put air pressure thru the bonjo bolt below of the WG but doesnot hold
pressure The diaframe is good since, I checked no visual cuts, plus it holds
vacume from the top...
 
Is that normal that it will leak thru the piston? or my piston is worn-out?
(i think is a piston that goes up & dowm..I have not take it apart yet)
