I tried the tap and go and the air hammer method on my 1282 a few years back. I let it soak with PB Blaster for over a week and then had 6 teenaged boys pulling up on it while I tapped on it. This thing was NOT coming off. That’s when I bought this Snap-On Puller. I threaded the steering wheel nut flush with the top of the shaft so as not to damage the treads and after a few tight turns, it popped with no damage. I used the pop and go on my neighbors 100 and it worked. I also coat the shaft with Never-Seize before replacing the steering wheel.
