Sometimes you do yes. Member and sponsor JeffinPA makes a puller for the front basket pulley. (Your's doesn't have the basket on it because an O didn't use it, but it's the same.) If it won't come off, I strongly suggest his puller. I bought one of the first ones he made. Works great. His link is up top: Parts By Jeff.

I'd get a new throttle shaft. Or just go with the China carb. That shaft isn't worth fixing. You should be able to find a new shaft. If not, buy a used carb that is in better shape. Take two and make one good one.
