Yeah but what I'm saying Denny is that the battery came straight out of my truck with almost a full charge. In the past I've left my lights on all day and still had juice to start the engine. In the bisc it was pulling 14.7 amps with all of the lights one (high beams included) and most of the two hours or so I was using it, it was just the running lights.

The engine was not running (it a fresh build, I am borrowing the battery to make sure my electrical is 100% operational before I fire it up). I will check the water tonight. What do I add if it is low? Regular water? If not, where do I get the stuff to add?

I know it all sounds confusing. I ought not to troubleshoot a donor battery, from another vehicle, with a possible charging system problem, while I am using to diagnose the electrical system in the "battery borrowing" vehicle... ...need to get my ducks in a row.

No need to reply (except for the water question). I'll remove the battery in question, put it back in my truck, and buy a new one for the biscayne. I'll make all of the checks we have discussed, regarding my truck, and get back with you.
