Are you saying that when you offer a screw driver up to the engine you loose radio? That would be very strange indeed.

I assume it only does this with the engine running? In which case unless you have a radio active screw driver it must be somehow acting as an aerial for interference generated by the coil / plug.

You have some options....

Try a new plug

Try a new coil

Try a different receiver

And if all else fails use a plastic screw driver
