19hg is a bit much, mine are fully open around 10-12hg - on car hooked to linkage. GM had a problem batch of actuators made a few years ago, they start to open smoothly then bind up about half way through causing the rod to bend outwards. Had my parts guy order like 15 of them about 5yrs ago, if I recall correctly only 2 or 3 of that bunch tested good.
