is it 34 or 36 mm could go and have a look if nobody knows.

It's an imperial socket size: 1_5/16" (or 33.274mm)

[Rosslin Racing]

I know that its Imperial, try getting one in the shops in the UK might be fun.

Called my local tools suppy shop-thing, got it the next day (in metric Germany)
(And any Mini parts dealer should have it in stock, same with the long 1.5" socket for the swivel pins)

or 3/4" Whitworth - but that'll be even harder to come across!

[Rosslin Racing]

Made the first one, got second at the Oldtimer Markt Fribourg

Halfords stock them, but I do confess to using a metric equivalent now and then (when I can't be bothered to try and find the proper tools)

[Rosslin Racing]

I was in Halfords Tonbridge last week, dont go to them Rubbish comes to mind, They did have waxoyl kits so I stocked up.

I always used to slate Halfords, but I've found that my new local one is actually really good. I guess it's all about the staff that they employ though really. Some of their toosl are reasonable too. Plus they sell decent branded tools now.

[Rosslin Racing]

Halfords do have some very good products i have tools that have more than twenty years service and still work perfect, its the bikes and disco that lets it down and if you look for an airfilter oilfilter you find champion or what ever in the booklet and on the shelf is Halfords own brand with no cross referance not even on the info desk.
