Default web address to buy valve adjustment tool?

I tried the search function but couldn't find it. Funny cause I found it before using the search function before. Anyhow, does someone have the url?

Many thanks,
Jeff

hey hey hey if you know anyone that can weld, then save some loot and weld a 12mm deep socket to a box wrench or another handle and you are all set. cost is about $8 for the setup I used... who needs to blow 50 bucks on one tool? especially one you can fabricate easily, it doesnt get subjected to high torques either, so no worries about safety.

Actually its a 10mm and you can just bend a 10mm wrench in an Z shape with a torch, but believe me that route kinda sux, but it works too. If you have the cash get the tool. you will be you did..

Thanks, but that's not the site. The one I was looking for had the tool for 40 with free shipping for orders of 50 or more. I really like the welding idea. I could really save the money, but I don't know anyone that welds. Check that, my best friend's dad has a welder. Thanks y'all for reminding me and saving me some cash

B series non vtec motors use a 12mm, B series vtec motors use a 10mm. The tool is more for convinience (sp?). It can be done without the tool.

I cant see this working, because of the fact that you have to get a screwdriver through whatever your holding the nut with hence the need for a special tool..
