Arran - I have used a nutdriver with tape wrapped around it too, but I found that it was detuning the circuit. The fibre (plastic) wrench was much better.

Jim - I have done the same thing, if the adjustment nut is tight, I will use the nutdriver first to break the 'set'. Sometimes, I will even use a drop of oil on the screw shaft, if they are really tight.
