Here's how I have done it . . .
Pull the line to the #1 injector and turn the crank by hand a couple of times with the pedal at full throttle. This will fill the output spout with fuel but not spray it all over you. Then use a lint free towel or rag and blot up the fuel in the little spout until there is just a very little bit at the bottom of spout. The "spout" is a tiny funnel shaped affair and you just need to have the very bottom of it just barely wet with fuel. (I say "lint free" just to cover my butt. I usually just use the corner of a double folded t shirt.) Then watch it carefully as you turn the crank by hand with a long breaker bar type setup. You should see the level in the spout just start to change at 24.5 degrees BTDC.
But you needn't fear the dissassembly process either. And the "U" shaped tube can be made from a salvaged pressure pipe from another engine. Just bend it around a 14 mm socket and cut it off. Don't worry about flattening it - they are very thick walled.
Hope this helps,
Bogy.
