valve is spinning

Gentlemen,

My spring valve adjustment is not going so well. I have 3 valves that "spin" while I turn the jamnut. I have gone through the website and this problem is not uncommon. It was suggested to jam a flat screwdriver somewhere, I am not sure where, to prevent this from happening. There is also a reference to a "3rd" wrench that attaches to the valve and prevents this spinning.

I don't want to use blunt instruments that might leave a nick on the valve stem or compromise the overall operation.

I did the first 7 valves very easily. What do I do now?
