Does anyone have one please that they are willing to sell?

You can get them off eBay or you can jam the flywheel through the flywheel inspection hole. Jamming the flywheel is how I/we do it.

Thanks Merlin, I was trying to get one cheap because I'm tight, and I figured someone would probably have one lying around.
I had a look at the flywheel but I didn't see an easy way to jam it (gearbox is currently off). I didn't want to risk stressing the components if I jammed the flywheel end or damage the flywheel teeth. What did you use to jam the flywheel?

The tool is about £25 on ebay, once you have used it, I'm sure you could sell it on for not much of a loss.

i just feed a load of rope into a cylinder through the spark plug hole so the crank cant complete its revolution, best way i found to do it, without a tool of course lol.

Just a prybar.

That is a bit "out there" isn't it?

You would have to time it right so it is on the compression stroke? Or the valves would get damaged.
