I have the same problem. I have beating and lubing with not luck. Any suggestions?
 
"Use a hand held propane torch

"Use a hand held propane torch to heat the aluminum surrounding that steel pin, then using the biggest hammer available and a steel shaft of some kind, drive that shaft out.

You might also want to apply some heat to the top portion of the tilt rod itself that surrounds that pin. That will melt the nylon bushings somewhat which may be of some help. You'll need to purchase new bushings anyway.

Be sure to keep a fire extinguisher and a garden hose handy. The carburetor are pretty close to that area."
