Tom, I have followed your advise on two items, It worked on both. On the timing gear I followed the picture that you had posted. Checked the timing on the engine. Engine started after about two revolutions, runs good.
On the broken steering arm, I compressed the ball and spring with a large C clamp then put a very small C clamp on the ball cup. Put the shaft in a vise and was able to use a large screw driver to pry the ball and shaft out. I followed your advise and wore leather gloves and face shield.
It was installed wrong.
Thank you for your knowledge of the A, and your willingness to share.
