why not use a fuel that is a gas? I heard of this stuff called propane.
Studies show its easy to meter, cheap, and doesn't require ungodly high pressures

You can get a diesel injector test ting, it is very simple, just pull down a handle, and it generates enormous pressure, and releases it thru the injector, it is not so big, so it should be an easy task.
