Honestly you don't need it... just eyeball it... turn the crank until pump lifter is lowest position..

I agree with Osman. I was worried about the tool... even got a borescope but couldn't see anything. I ended up using the old pump as a guide, I pulled the fuel pump fuses and used the starter to turn the motor over until I put the old pump on and it looked to be in the lowest position (Crank pulley bolt is damn near impossible to get to with steering rack in place). There is always going to be a little bit of slack to take up by tightening the bolts but it's obvious when it's too high.
