Electrical
Thanks Joe, I think I have finally fixed the issue. I would go out to start the car, and the battery would be dead. The meter on the dash always indicated a good charge while the engine was running, but overnight the battery would drain. I disconnected the neg cable to the battery, and plugged in a test light between the lead battery connector and the battery post. The test light gave a glow you could read the paper from. Then I went to the fuse box and started pulling fuses. Pretty soon I got to the 4 way flasher circuit and when I pulled the fuse the light went out. That told me what circuit was the culprit, and it wasn't long until I found that the flashing unit had shorted out. Once I replaced it, I did not have any more issues.
But electrics is not my strong point, I am just a computer geek, and its great to know there are folks that are willing to lend a hand. If you have not decided which kit you are going to get, may the owners in this forum can tell you what they like about their cars, (and what they don't), to help out new buyers like you.
Thanks again;
