From what I'm reading here, my issue is that I can't just jumper #2 to Bat post. I moved a couple months ago and much of my stuff is still boxed as we are moving again next year. So still looking for my drawings as to how it is wired. Don't want to undo more than is needed because I have it all nice and tidy.
I get the draw only when the #2 to post is connected. I have a volt meter installed instead of amp meter. I made my test in series at the battery to the disconnected cable. The multimeter was set to measure current draw. The alternator is internally regulated. The coil is has internal ballast. I know now that isn't the best for starting and will probably change some day but works OK for me at the moment.
