You may have solved one of my ongoing problems - if so Ill buy you a
beer!! - 
If i dont run my 72 every 3-4 days (real hardship eh??!) the battery goes
flat and i have to jump it. - battery is only a year old and i have
checked every possible leak i can think of plus all the ones you guys
have suggested...... with one exception....
when i retrimmed the car i left the radio in even though it has no
speakers - dont want to cut the panels! Its a cheap $75 radio so i just
left it there figuring id get a blanking plate one of these days - its
never switched on and only displays a clock when the car is running -
anyway, its coming out and watch this space.....
