Wayne, your problem sounds like fuel problem rather than sticking wastegate on turbo.
First I would check the fuel filter, last change, possible loosen up, fuel transfer pump
and return fuel to tank. I would suggest first take loose the return line going back to fuel tank
and connect a clear plastic hose and let run into container with engine running. Run at
Idle, half speed and hold at full speed. What you are looking for is air bubbles ( return fuel
cannot have any air ). This will tell you if there is a restriction, low transfer pump pressure,
Fuel filter needs changing. Dave Atherton Retired Cat Mechanic
