Friendly Local Auto Parts Store. Advance, AutoZtoned, etc. They "lend" out tools like pullers, spring compressors, etc. You put down a deposit or leave your CC#, but in the end it's free.

For what it's worth, the HF tool worked like a charm on my vac pump. I figure if I get 4-5 uses out of it among all the trucks, it'll pay for itself.

If you have a NAPA stor near by
NAPA AUTO PARTS
I believe the OTC tools are what Ford issues as Rotunda tools used at the dealerships.

Ok guys..I bought the tool today @ Canadian Tire... looks small compared to what I thought it would be but I was assured it is similar to the KD / OTC tool in a fancy little case...it was 56 bucks with taxes and Lifetime warranty...Now I have to figure out how to use it and go from there....thanks alot

Thank God for a couple days of above freezing temps......
Aside form that , I finally got the beatch back together .....as of 5 Minutes ago ...No leaks......not bad for a pump that was in hibernation....for 15 years.....the most difficult part was optimizing the Tool....NO ROOM in a Van with the PSD..
Thanks to everyone for thier Input.....
