Befuddling Power Problem - pretty urgent

[DevilK9]

Thanks in advance for any help with this problem of mine.

Problem #1 - I have an 87 Jag that I love:screwy:

Problem #2 - The battery keeps going dead on me while the car sits in the parking lot. No lights or auxiliary switches are on.

I can trickle charge the battery at night and it fires up on the way to work, but when I park it and come back from lunch or at the end of the day...nothing. I had the battery checked last night at two locations and both machines said the battery and alternator were fine, just that the battery needed a full charge.

Due to the Honda being temporarily out of commision, this is my only car. I could use some immediate help.

Is there something that pulls power that I need to check that I don't know about?

Any hints?

Any help..

Anything?


Thanks.

I appreciate the response, but like I said, I had the battery tested by multiple machines. All said it was good, just needed a charge (which I gave it last night and it fired up well this morning).

I might try another battery, but if that's not it, then I'm out a chunk of change, y'know.

try 1 out of another car.

It appears that there was a ground loose. We tightened all the points and the problem is gone.

Thanks no mo hondas for your input.
