Bad alternator?
Ok, so new wire harness, 2 fuses installed, one going to the coil and the other is for the ignition. Engine is grounded to the frame with a big fat grounding strap. Now i have been told that if your alternator has a bad diode inside that it can drain your battery. I have a slow drain and was wondering if this is true and if anyone knows how to test for that? Thanks in advance!
