[QUOTE="Imatk, post: 16298080, member: 75573"] Found out that it isn't likely parasitic draw. Looks like it's a bad solenoid so going to replace that and hopefully fix my issue. Fortunately the car wouldn't start when I went to test it again... but this time the battery was fully charged and checked with over 600 cca so I knew it wasn't the battery at that point. My next thought was the clutch safety switch, OR the solenoid. Tested the solenoid because it's easy on a fox car and it wouldn't turn over. Just clicked a few times. Kept testing it and it finally turned over. So I think the solenoid is just failing. It's the original part so it's 28 years old... time I guess :) [/QUOTE]
