i have this international ce bus dt 466 the nuts that hold the actuator for the turbo three fell out and one is on by a thread first i was wondering if anyone had this problem and second if this was u would u replace the actuator because it was jamming up because bolts where out it moves fine just worried if i put back together it will fail in a few months ???????

Seems like it might be good insurance to just go ahead and replace it. I've never had this happen, so I'm not speaking from experience, just my opinion.

i desided to replace the actuator i have about 6 of them and this is a first i couldnt believe it when i saw it but the nuts on three where gone and it must have been that way for a while cause it wore the studs to almost nothing only one nut was on and when the actuator moved the hole actuator would move causing linkage to jam up driver never complained about performance i just had it in for general service and spotted it
