i was wondering if i could static time my 71 cb750 with a volt meter instead of a test light? if so would i just hook up the positive to the blue/yellow wire then the negative to the frame (ground)? the reason why i am asking is because i have a multi meter but not a test light. plus it sounds like a multimeter would be more accurate.


Yes.
