Asked by GuruBZ7NV Dec 10, 2018 at 12:17 PM about the 1996 Ford Mustang GT Coupe RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 96 mustang gt 4.6l auto. With a new
batteryand new alt, the car still discharges the
battery when running and eventually dies. Found a
draw on radio fuse, pulled fuse and nothing new.
Both alternators read 11 to11.5volts, nothing
higher when running. I did find a .56 draw on
battery after i pulled the radio fuse still.  Will this
draw put that amount of strain on my new
alternator n drain batt?
