Hi! Alan
Suggest you get a suitable BOX spanner with the size you want at the
plug end and a smaller size the other end. Then get an old nut to fit
the small end and file out the thread to take your 3/8" drive wrench.
This has been known to work for Ivan Shaw in Stockholm ...ask him !

Hi All 
I am in the middle of doing my annual and decided to torque the spark
plugs as recommended in the manual. Problem is I cant get hold of an
18mm plug socket to go on my torque wrench (3/8 drive) that will fit
into the small space available in the Rotax cylinder head. Before I
start destroying a socket, has anyone found a source from where I can
order one?
Many Thanks

Alan
