i have a 88 bronco 2 that kills the battery after 3 days. i've norrowed it down to the lighting system (unhooked the fuse link) and it's between the fuse link and the light swt. does anyone know where it might chaf here before i start ripping the wire loom apart? it must be barely rubbing. thanks

Just to let someone know if they have the same problem I found my draw. After cutting wires and following the curciut (thank gosh I kept the wiring dia. from the last Ford dealer I worked for) I found that the lumber support curcuit fried my fuse block. Looked good from the front and didn't pop the fuse link but was enough to kill the battery. Glad I bought that $50 BII sitting in my back yard. By the way, I have 317,000 on this ride and the heads have never been off and the sqeeze is still good. Keep on changing that oil
