haha yeh...boredom seems to make me reply faster. The kit in the helms has a screwdriver built into everything, im sure its easier. If you have a torch or something to bend the wrench like that, im sure it will work just as well...

The tool you want is available from toolcraze.com.....



SP 88950 Universal Valve Adjustment Tool( 10mm Jam Nut)
Code: S8UVAT1
Price: $38.95

Shipping Weight: 1.00 pounds

Adjustments are a complete piece of cake with this tool. BTW, Honda sells the OEM tool for upwards of $80........

HTH!

Steve

You could also use the ghetto fab 10mm extension socket and a pair of vice grips and a long flat head screwdriver. Total cost could be $0 if you have the pieces laying around the garage.

OVerall, it is probably worth just buying the Snap-On tool for $40; it will pay for its self after the first use!
