Scott,
I removed my linkage completely. Once you remove the nut, there's really no other option but to remove the linkage arm / shaft - otherwise it will just fall off. If you remove the nut, the linkage arm/shaft will pull all the way out of the small retaining block once you press the throttle. The linkage arm just swivels off of the mount on the main throttle shaft.
It's not too difficult to remove & replace the linkage arm (~35 min). The nut and arm are all that need to be removed to disable the pump - cam and other components remain intact.
Pictures of the disassembled linkage and info's on PMO's hatchet cam is on page 3 of this saga...

Good luck,
