tools for 4ks fuel sys work



Hi all,

Ok, so, I'm getting ready to really dig into my 86 4ks' fuel sys problems,
which I've previously babbled about on this list.  In the spirit of hating
to get into a job and have things all torn down only to find out I don't
have the correct tools, what's a good basic list of tools to work on this
sys.   I have a very wide range of metric hand tools from all my motorcycle
work, but nothing like pressure gauges for the fuel system and whatever 
adaptors I might need.  I saw an apparently very universal FI kit from
J.C.W. but, it was $299.  A bit high, unless really needed, for working on
a single car.  I also don't have a timing light anymore, though I'm about
to fix that.  Otherwise, I'm very well set up electrically.  Several VOMs,
a func generator or two, and an O-scope.  I guess I'm mostly worried about
measuring fuel pressure.  I do have a vac-gauge and compression tester some
where around here.   

I'd love to hear you guy's recommendations as to what tools and adaptors/
fittings I should have on hand before I plow into this.

regards
roger
