Ken,
Last weekend I sent the following message to the triumphs list soliciting
advice on removing the heater air control lever so I could salvage a good
lever from a used heater. I received a couple of replies (thanks) but they
arrived later than I needed so instead I was on my own as far as removing
the lever. I was able to find a heater locally and the guy said to just take
the whole thing and play with it to see if I could remove the lever without
damaging the heater. If you are interested for the VTR site, I have
documented the solution at
