    I don’t see any evidence of vanes sticking in the graph.

    I like your graph.

    Did you import the data from the MM3 or use a scan tool?

    Please keep us posted. @BrentM
    Thanks, I pulled the data using AlphaOBD, exported it, and graphed it in google sheets.

    I am going to check it this weekend.

    I definitely will report back.

    So wiring is good, and turbo side of the VGT moves freely so looks like the actuator @DDP do you have any?

    Genos is back ordered until 1/15.

    City Diesel Actuators are back ordered until 2/15 now, and I have one on order with Genos, but the truck is sitting without coolant in the system.

    Is this bad?

    Should I refill the cooling system to prevent any rust?

    You may be okay, but for peace of mind, I would refill to keep water pump seals and hoses from drying out and also to prevent any rust from forming.
