Anybody with a spare 1"5/16 or 34mm flat spanner?

    I cant get myself to dish out the €17 needed to buy one from Halfrauds and immediately heat it and bend it beyond recognition.

    I need this to have a suitable tool to turn over the engine on the Jag when setting the cams etc.

    This is what I am aiming for:

    So a well battered and preferably "soft" piece of used metal will do. Surely, you have one of those somewhere and have not used it in years!!! Time to find a new home for it :)

    What about a socket and rachet or a T-bar and socket ?

    The bends are needed to clear things.

    I've got some big spanners, but no 1-5/16" ones.
