I use a needle nose plier to jump the little screw to the middle screw. Get it all set up and have the gauge in a position where you can read it. Then insert one prong of the needle nose into the center of one screw, then when ready move the plier enough so the other prong will stick the center of the other screw. Try it once or twice before the test to get the feel of it, (and yes you might see a couple of sparks jump also). But by doing it that way (with the ignition off) your fuel shut off remains closed and no new fuel comes into the IP. So only the very small amount of fuel in the cell in the IP jump out and just put a shop towel over it and you will have no fuel. That terminal box is right behind the radiator overflow bottle and it is about three quarters of an inch wide and about 2 inches long and has a big X across the top. It has a pop open lid on it. Try it, you'll like it!
