Depending on how fancy you want to go, your local auto parts store will have 10-15 dollar vacuum/pressure gauge that you can put over the output of the pump and give it a crank and see what you have.

Sorry for the E-bay references, its just faster

or use this gauge and a 14x1.25 banjo fitting with the tapped hole, like on my carb bench. then use this type.
