Like to see how you fit those screwdriver on a torque wrench.

Never used a JLS screwdriver in my life, like Trig a PH2 ground down on the tip worked just fine. I also found the Snap-On PH2 socket worked really well, although I did break the tip on a few of them using an impact driver with them, free replacement and they never asked how I'd broke it  :)
This is where you are getting wrong, If you try jis and not jls you will find there is a difference🙂

I agree Trig, I would add that a PH2 fits better with the tip ground off a tadge.
A ph2 will never fit a jis screw better than a jis screwdriver no matter how much hope you put into it.

:-) I like to precision grid an Ingot of Unicorn shyte to my own unique interpretation of the JIS standard. Then send my engines to Graham to rebuild. Simple.

Why are tappet covers so, so tight. It is only two full turn thread and with a O ring. I had one once that it didn't matter how much heat, metrinch socket on a breaker bar, it would not budge. Ended up drilling it out, maybe should of tried a JIS Screwdriver on it first  ;D ;D

Maybe a JIS screwdriver would have removed the seized centre stand pivot easily.  ;D
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

My oil gallery plug will only loosen if I hammer a 1/4" whitworth socket over the end. Maybe because it's plumbing.
