You're right, Chris, it's simply pinned. I file both ends of the peened pin
until there is a clear end of pin outlined against the casting. I guess the
pin is probably tapered but I'll be danged if I can tell for sure - it's too
short. But after cleaning both ends with a file you can start delicately
tapping the end with a small drive punch and hammer.
When that doesn't work I begin beating the crap out of it and generally
replace the beat up pin with a roll pin. Sometimes heat on the small
casting - just red - with a touch of beeswax on the pin can help disassembly
frustrations.

Hi All,
Am wanting to remove the accelerator pedal on our P from the cross-shaft
assembly. It appears to be pinned in, but it looks like the pin does
not go all the way through. So I am buggered how you get it out without
drilling it out. Does anyone know anything about the
assembly/disassembly of these? I want to be able to get it all back
together once it is apart so prefer to minimise the amount of damage to
various bits and pieces including the pin.
Regards,
Chris Bucknell
