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

to
    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.
