HWC-18
You want the HCW-4 not the 18. An SPA-2 would also work as would any adjustable pin spanner with pins of the correct dimensions but the HCW-4 is the tool of choice really, anything adjustable will slip a lot more easily.
If t's dirt stopping the cup screwing in though, you really ought to give it a proper clean. A toothbrush and some degreaser/gt85/disc cleaner should be all you need really.

Speaking of Shimano BB-7400, anyone has any tool or hints & tips on how to screw in the right side cup ? I.e. the one with 6 holes in it.
I think the ParkTool SPA-4 or HWC-18 are the correct tools, but would like to get a hand on one tomorrow and thus was looking for alternatives?
I need to install it on my Alan, but it doesn't screw in by hand (it stops mid way, may be because of dirt, tried to clean, but don't have proper cleaning tool either), so was thinking of a little help from such a tool.
Anyone?
