A good Digital volt ohm meter is good to have around, as well as a 12v test light, and spare fuses. Wire crimper tool, and some crimp connectors are also good to have items.

Get a good Analog multi-meter too.
It will show pulsing ,with a sweep motion.

If you went to Sears, you might find a good engine analyzer with
many functions.

A 12v power supply for checking out a component while you have it out of the vehicle. This can be a battery charger. Which always handy to have. One thing that I keep in my vehicle is a portable jumper battery. They cost around $50.00 and really handy to help out someone.
