Sure enough, the tapered pin that secures the throwout bearing fork to the
cross shaft is broken. Problem now is, the fork, while quite loose, isn't loose
enough to slide off. They sure didn't make that leftover bit of pin accessible.
Haynes says the fork can be a "tight fit".
One question: is it reasonable to start hammering on it, or is that tapered pin
(whatever is left of it in there) hardened, making it likely I'll bust the fork?
Other question: if indeed I have to saw the shaft in half, is it solid, or
hollow? I hope it's like, totally tubular. Else I'll be sawing for a week.

Jim
