[Chevelle-list] Power Problem?

[John W. Lonadier, Jr.]

Tabius,
 
A while back I had the same problem as you. It turned out that I had a
bad diode in my alternator which was drawing down the battery after a
couple of days. How I found out was I brought it over to AutoZone and
had them put their tester on it. While it was running it was fine but
when I shut it down the tester showed I had a bad diode. I changed the
alternator and no more problem.

I have a 71 Chevelle SS 402 and last week went out to start my car and
the battery was dead. Being that the battery was fairly old, i just
opted for a new battery. After the new battery, the car cranked fine for
2 days but again the battery was dead. No lights are being left on so
I'm wondering where this draw is coming from. Could it be a bad
alternator or maybe, just maybe the trunk light not going off?

Thanks,

Tabius
