Just wait for angeloc to wake up - he'll be along soon to tell you everything you need to know about making your own kit. 
Hi Chaser,
The way i undertand it is that some leak off is normal.
Measuring the ammount of leak off on each injector, can indicate which one has problem.
I've just been reading a PDF at rover rons thats says that they should all be re-conditioned every 100k miles. I know that mine have not been done in the last 122k, I doubt that they were done up to then.
I might just get a quote on changing all four.......£££££££
Cheers
David

Testing with the injectors operating/engine running is for imbalance.
Testing leakage with the injector valve closed is a different test altogether as there should be no leakback in this state. If you do the test cranking you have to disconnect the electrical plugs to injectors to prevent them opening.
