Alan, is that a new "MGTF", or a new "MGF"?  If the latter, then the Chinese
couldn't make it look any worse anyway.  The French could, though.

  Steve -

  You may think your comment is humorous, however the new MGTF will be
chinese engineered!!

       I'm not sure how accessible the lock washer tab is for unbending with

       remove the nut, I'd just give the starter method a try again.

       Although I got away last time without any inner sheetmetal damage
(the
    loud
       BANG did scare the crap out of me), next time I would put a piece of
2 x

       against the LH side inner fender/wing, then turn the engine with the
    wrench
       until the wrench was securely against the wood before hitting the
    starter
       button.
