Something is draining my battery.
This has been happening for a few years but I have not bothered to do any
about it as I would just disconnected the battery.
I am thinking about putting in a kill switch to disconnect the battery and
also serve as a form of security.
At present I remove the rotor from the distributor.
I suppose that I could hide the kill switch under the car where it would not
be seen.
I will try to trace the drain but would anyone know any shortcuts or is it a
matter of just running a multimeter over all the electricals.

PS I was amazed when I read a Sept 2003 NZ Classic magazine and found someone
advertising a California TR4 with 24,000 miles on the clock for NZ $39,000.
I hadn't realised that TR's had gone up in value so much in NZ. By the way the
car was not restored but original cond.
