Walt, I'm not sure what the cause of your window binding issue is, but
if you do have to take the door panels off then I have a suggestion to
offer. A friend of mine (thanks Jim) let me in on the little secret
which is a pair of hemostats. Those are the curved clamping pliers used
by doctors which can be picked up at any medical supply place for five
or ten bucks.
Just clamp down on the pin and the insertion issue made much easier.

Subject: window rattles/carb rebuilds
My passenger side door window has fallen out of the track. I fixed it a
couple weeks ago and it has come out again. When the window is in the
track,
it does not operate smoothly. When rolling it down, the handle will move
(1/2 to full turn) then the window will drop down. This repeats until
the
window is fully retracted. Does this mean that my track is bad or could
it
be that just the felt is worn. I'm asking this so that I don't have to
play
with those nasty pins on the window crank and door handle just for a
look.
: )
I'm going to rebuild my carbs. I'd like to do it myself if the throttle
shaft bushings don't need replacement. I've tried spraying carb cleaner
next
to the shafts and don't notice any change in rpm.
Thanks
