ebay is probably your best bet, got one off there a while back but can't remember the price :o:
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

Got one there from a local mechanic to borrow.

Is there a wiki guide for testing fuel pressure or anyone want to give me the low down?

Just go and buy a cheap and nasty after market fuel pressure gauge that fits into the dash (VDO or the like) and use that, I have one I bought many years ago, works a treat.

The "£10 ebay fuel pressure gauge kits" that I have referred to in many posts on here are like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fuel-Pressure ... Swp5JWVF~4 , but these now appear to be around £20.
Something like this should do the job: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fuel-Injectio ... SwMmBVw0oz
