Default Looking for someone in USA to buy valve lash tool and ship to UK

I'm trying to get the below part

Alltrade 648827 10mm 7-1/2-Inch Jam Nut Valve Adjustment Tool - http://www.amazon.com/Alltrade-64882...5926473&sr=1-3

However, i can't find anywhere that will ship to the UK and i cannot find a supplier that offers the same or similar part here.

Would anyone be able to buy this and ship to me in the UK and make some quick dollah?

David

I know that that tool makes a valve adjustment easier, but why not just use a wrench and a screwdriver? Worked just fine for me!!

I would prefer to have this tool to do the job.

You could grind some flat spots into a deep socket to make it look like a spark plug remover. Then you could stick the flathead through the 3/8 drive square and hold onto the outside of the socket with a crescent wrench or something.

The Tool is just a gimmic in order to charge more money i use a screw driver (which is what is inside the tool) and an open ended wrench or one of those Gear ratchets i can see that bent rod tool wearing over time and you would only use it once or twice. Where as a screw driver and a wrench you can use for more than one puproposes. I can get a feel for it better using An open end and a screwdriver because you can see the nut and the center set screw with that tool you have to guess and hope it does not move
