We still can't separate the steering wheel and get the stator tube out.   Unscrewed the nut but something is still stuck.   In the video,  the guy just says "i got it out."  It's like in the manual they say just remove the stator tube.   No can do

<div>Nice video (even though I don't have a TR3) the shot of the little screws holding the mechanism on, for the first time I understand why they call them "grub screws".
