I have a 1985 CJ7, stright 6
I just bought a new alternator and battery, there is a small drain when the alternator is hooked up (.01 volts per 5 mins) and I tracked it back to the alternator over a long night of tinkering. I have also looked at EVERY diagram on the internet and none of them worked.
When I have the alternator hooked directly up to the battery it charges perfect but the small drain persists, and if hook it up like all the diagrams indicate the alternator doesn't provide enough power. :banghead:
I have even tried another alternator and it also has the same drain, so I am stumped!!!
Can anyone point me in the right direction???
