86 4runner battery problem
i have an 86 4runner that i just put a motor in, everything works fine and runs fine. The only problem i have is everyday i go 2 start it and the battery is dead, so there's something that is drawing power when it is parked the only thing that i can see, that is drawing power it the digital clock but that shouldn't be enough to were down the battery. So wondering if anyone has some ideas of what is drawing power out of the battery. I also have tested the battery and it is fine.

Disconnect the battery cable (either one) and connect an ammeter (current meter) between the cable and the battery post and see what sort of current is being pulled. Then start pulling fuses until you see that current drop and then find out what thing(s) on that fuse circuit are draining the current. One common cause is a shorted diode in the alternator. You could pull that and have it tested ot just unplug the alt. when the meter is in place.
