Test light is all that is needed on a points system. No need to run the engine. CDI engines should run a timing light.

Harley Davidson did NOT use C.D.I. ignition Sir. Kawasaki Triple cylinder 2 stroke engines from the 70z did, and dirt bikes from the same Era, used a Magneto supported C.D.I., which didn't require a D.C. battery. C.D.I. stands for, Capacitor Discharge Ignition, not found on a Harley Davidson. T.S. RACING I.

Think about it. If someone doesn't understand advanced, retarded, and in time they probably shouldn't be trying to do this without learning that first.
