Does you snap on meter have a current setting? If you look at the schematic
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread.php?t=226517&highlight=cdi+schematic the current through the signal wire through the points to ground should be (Vbatt - 0.7) / 1000 ~ 12 milli amps.
Ooops messed up on that, missed a resistor. should be 12 / 33 or 0.36 an amp.
