It not the size that matters, it's what you do with it that counts .

OK! OK!
I'll answer my own question just in case anyone wants to know for future reference.
And the answer is ''' 29mm '''!!

It might be for the otter switch on your car... but somebody elses????

seen several different sizes depending on which manufacturer. I have a big adjustable which is ideal for the job and costs a lot less than a 29mm spanner. About £3 off the market IIRC.

The problem now is that I can't shift the blooding thing as it appears to have corroded in.
Any suggestions or is it a case of ' brute force ' and hope that I don't rip the bottom of the tank off?
Any sensible suggestions?

I always used an adjustable wench ( ) for this and the stepper motor.
