...I just did the loaner tool from Autozone. In the end, its free. Advance Auto and O'Reilly's have similar programs. Put a deposit down (e.g. Pay for the tool), then when you are finished, return it as you got it and the full deposit is refunded. The idea us that you'll buy parts fir the job from them, but they are clear that there is mo commitment. I usually buy something from them anyway.
