[TR] TR3 Accelerator shaft bush

[TERRY SMITH]

Sometimes the simplest solution is your local machine shop.  Small job for them with torches that I don't have and various tuggers and pullers.  Just this morning saved $100 plus on a belt tensioner because a bolt rusted frozen.  They were able to take it out when drilling and easy-outs with propane heat didn't work.  


Might be easier than procuring another one.

Once you get it to move a little just keep working it back and forth and straighten and/or file the shaft to get it off.  Based on the TR spare parts catalogue I believe the PN is 120443 (108614 up to comm #TS28921) and neither are available from TRF either.
