Long story short, I am at a loss here. The car is in fantastic condition and I can't figure out why all of a sudden it keeps killing batteries! I bought a brand new one and the next day it had no charge. O'reilly's charged it and two days later, no charge again! I can boost it off and it runs like a dream. Any ideas? Could the main relay be bad? I also replaced the radio with a stock one from a 850 turbo. Thats the only things, I can think of

you have a draw somewhere, check your trunk light, you glove box light, anything that when it is open or on would pull power. Ie; Fan, fuel pump, window regulator. See if these things are still running when the car is off..
Tracing a draw is hard but you WILL find it eventually.
In the meantime I recommend getting a battery quick disconnect... This will save you when ever you stop.

Check the Sticky just above titled:

There is a good battery drain discussion that should help. Most of are probably betting on the glove box courtesy light.
