Would the selonoid or ignition be a problem? Ill check to see if there is a draw 1st, but was just wondering. I have a voltmeter. I went out yesterday and hooked up the jumper cables and got in the truck...like 30 sec, fired right up, didn't have to wait to charge. Ran the truck at idle til she warmed up, ran her at 2000 for a few min to try and charge the battery, shut her off and nothing. What would cause a draw that would drain it that fast. If it were the rectifier diode, what is the fix for that? The alternator has maybe 45min of run time. I have the original 230L6 in the truck, stock wiring and a 63amp alt. ***Also...noticed that the amp gauge didn't move yesterday either. If the gauge has "blown" would that cause any interference in the battery recharging? I have all the manuals and literature that a man could own for a 63, but this one is ringing my neck.
