I dream of a seal that would actually last but its nto an option in the given situation.

Tighter clearances = a higher jamming risk.
Looking in to some coatings that will keep the soot from sticking.
I'm thinking of running an air system, so no more hot dirty air inside the cylinder. (Yes, I have a filter on the lines now.)

Shouldn't be a slow return using solenoids to pressure up, and vent off the top of the actuator. (Air to close it, and vent it off to open it.)
