    Rather than messing with the pin, I find it easier to remove the 3/8" nut, lockwasher and fork from the primer linkage. You can then pull up on the primer shaft to remove the tank (the recoil assy. must be off as well).

    Strategically replacing a couple of the original bent wire cotters with miniature hitch pin cotters will make it easier to R&R the carb too.
