I use a:
1. Screwdriver to short across the S terminal and the main battery terminal of the solenoid. Sometimes this results in a 'melt down' of the screw driver tip, thus rendering an excellent 'punch' you always needed anyway...

2. Sometimes I use an open end wrench, China wrenches work best, because, well there is that 'melt down' problem.

3. Won't work with one screw driver? Try two (cool fire works).

4. Needle nose pliers might do the trick, again, use a Chinese pair.

5. Strip a piece of wire and use that (uh, watch out you don't burn your hand if it melts down).

6. Paper clip might work! Or just cut a piece of wire from under the hood, you don't really need all of them anyway. Just choose wisely...
