After all the frustration I had with trying to get a jack to work, I got mad and decided to just buy a hydraulic pump.
I found a guy selling these beauties on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230532393255&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
So all told it cost me about $73. Apparently these are NOS pumps, the packaging mine came wrapped in was marked April 1985 or something like that, but they are made in the USA and very solid. I figured once I was done using it for my pop tester I could most likely use it for some other projects so it sounded like a good deal.
Today I threw it all together with some fittings to rig up a little tester:
Looks like it should work nicely, it holds pressure well and works way better than the jack ever did, that's for sure.
