Bought one of these yesterday, for using as a fuel system pressure tester. I needed to troubleshoot my fleet, but the price of a tester was prohibitive. At SEK100 or about $12 it was pretty much value for the money.

It's a tire filler for shop air with a manometer.

It was an idea I got from nowhere. However it worked like charm, connecting to the schraeder valve on the fuel rail. Time will tell if it is fuel safe.
Just dont touch any of the buttons or levers on the filler, the fuel will flow otherwise...
