You really need a good vice when getting those injectors apart and be very careful not to mix up parts. I would invest in manuals and some tools if your up for working on these cars, they are really very DIY friendly.
I've got a pretty decent set so far, and I am amassing more and more as I get further into the work on the merc (it rhymes... ). It seems to me like the further into the work I get, the larger sockets I need!

I am looking into getting a welder so that I can fashion some tools of my own, as well as to more advanced bodywork.
