I think I just sent an answer to a question you didn't ask- remove the trim
piece around the lock assembly, two nuts in back. Hard to get to. Then,
there is a TINY screw on the outboard side of the key mechanism that holds
it in. And I do mean TINY. Probably a 00 or 000 phillips head.

Subject: [6pack] Ignition lock
If it's not one thing, it's a half dozen others. Spent most of weekend
redoing fuel line and points. Ran well, no more fuel drips. Drove into
town
yesterday in my old jag for my weekly babysitting. On the way in, the power
booster failed; you can hear the air leak from 6 feet away. Brkes work, but
real hard.
No problem, I'll take the '6 in until I replace the booster!
Hah!
Went out this morning, 0530, to head into town and found I can not get the
key
into the ignition switch assembly. Close looking seems to indicate a
tumbler
has worn and fallen and jammed. So, now I have no vehicle.
I want to remove the TR's ingition switch assembly to free up the steering
lock. I'll then pry the electrical bit off the back and use a screw driver
to
start etc until I get a new ass'y to put in.
So the Question. How do I remove the ignition lock assembly? what do I
need
to take off to get to it?
Any one been there, done that, and can offer advice.
(and oh, the TR is in the driveway blocking the garage, so wife's car can't
get out)
Thanks
Ken
