86 951 Driver

If you have worked on a 944 turbo you have seen a ton of them. Are these really a one use item? I took my wastegate off and I'm not sure if I really need to change these out. They have been on the car for less than a few months and not many miles at all. Do I need to change these or will they seal up okay?

I'd give it a shot, they might seal up and if not the wastegate is easy to pull and reseal. I wouldn't try that on something difficult to get to, like the turbo-Xover seal.
