My friend was kind enough to pop up an hour ago with a 13mm spanner... Turns out it's the wrong size! It's actually 1/2", which I had. I swear I tried it earlier. But anyhow, we nipped them up a bit more and the leak has pretty much stopped. Injector 4 is still weeping but it's tiny (barely a single drop after a 13mi drive). It's nothing I would honestly worry about. We did manage to widen the neck of the spanner so that's now knackered, but job's a done one. I'll grab hold of another 1/2" spanner soon and nip it up that last tiny bit. It's amazing how much of a difference that last little bit makes.
Thanks for your help everyone. Having never dealt with injectors before this was a new experience. Next up, new tyre, then she'll be fit for the road
