I have a 92 Talon TSI AWD automatic and I was experiencing the same thing. My battery would completely drain if the car set for a day or two without driving it. If the noise you are hearing is like a humming noise chances are it's the fuel pump. But if I had to guess, I'd say it's a fast ticking...
That's cool. I haven't seen but a very few talon's around my area. Always good to know I'm not alone! My talon looks to be about the same color as yours. It needs to be painted though, it has a few bad spots.
I just recently bought a 92 STI AWD. I got it for 400 bucks! It needs some work but actually runs great. I'm looking to pull the engine and have some head work done, (valves, springs, cams, ect.) anyone have any suggested machine shops that can do good work?
