my exhaust at the turbo blows oil under heavy acceleration.Could the actuator be stuck open and how do I check it? The shaft spins good and there's no play.

If your loosing oil through the turbo the seals/ bearing are bad. The actuator just allows exhaust to by pass the turbine.

I don't think so.

I had a PDF file on them but I think it's stuck on my laptop with a bad power supply. :(

I sent it to a few people though, maybe someone I sent it to will read this and send it to ya.

Where are you located?
