856: how to remove throttle housing dash

[FLtractor 158]

Evening,

Is this supposed to be removed by thumb and hand motion? Just lubricant it? Or some kind of wrench or tools?

Just use pliers on it. It will come off. Be careful not to use pliers on the front or it will scar it a bit.

 

Sometimes it's easier if you remove the four screws hold the dash panel on. You will get more maneuverability

 If you need to hold the front with pliers, wrap it with several layers of duct tape ti prevent damage.

Just remember first that has been there for 60 years. Judging by the picture that you sent definitely original.A small chisel to brake it free. Done many of these. Once you brake it a way from the locking washer use two hands to spin the nut off. If you buying a new one there will be a big nut instead that thin spin on locking washer.
