jeez did you ever hear of punctuation ok ill give it to you the same way so youll see what a pain this is ok you have to find out if the battery is really being drained like an ignition off draw somewhere or if it is not being properly charged this could be an alternator regulator or wiring problem or maybe the starter motor drags when it gets hot or even overadvacned ignition spark timing and yes it could even be a simple bad battery like a shorted cell there are lots of possibilities anyone who knows anything about electricity can troubleshoot it easily yes its much easier and faster to type this way but it sure is harder to read right rick
