Wait, that's just like my truck...

That's what I have, but I haven't had many issues with it. I just left the hand-wheel screwed about half-way in so it seals; takes perhaps 5 strokes when you tighten an injector on it to build up pressure, give it another 10 to settle in and take your pop-reading.
