Hi Keith,
I use DMM's every day in my work. While you will pay more for a meter with
a reasonable current scale the few times you need it will be worth the extra
bucks. Trouble shooting your car(s) can be done with very limited
electrical equipment though, many do it successfuly with two pieces of wire
and a light bulb. In my experience cutting corners on tools seldom pays
off. If you really need a particular tool, buy the best one you can afford
and chances are it will serve you well and long in ways you never foresaw.
In short, if you'r going to get a metter get a good one, one with a ten amp
scale. Oh, and be sure it's fused! ;)
