First of all excuse my english because it's not my primary language.
Second I've searched and read a lot but couldn't find the answer to my problem.
The car is a 95 GSX shell I bought missing the engine and engine harness. I had a 93 Talon turbo FWD with a 6 bolt to put in it. So after I put it in the car would start but it would never idle and missed a lot. The ECU was fried. I got it repaired and the car now starts fine and idles fine. The problem is it drains the battery very fast. So I started reading about battery draining and diagnostics posts. And went to test stuff in the car.
I've narrowed it down to the "TOP" 60A fuse in the engine and the mfi/mpi draining the battery. The battery works good on other cars and other batteries still drains on my car. The car stays on with out a battery and charges it well even on idle. Voltage at idle is at 13.xx. I wrote down the numbers but can't find the paper.
A lot of weird stuff is also happening that may be related(from what I've read here). First as soon as I connect the battery the mpi/mfi relay clicks. The power lock relay clicks but it doesn't move the locks. The AC turns on but the compressor doesn't kick in.
I'm not worried about the AC and the P/L. What bothers me is the battery drain. From what I could investigate it had a standalone (microtech or haltech)before. And I don't know if it has something to do with anything. Also I bought the harness from someone here and he told me it came from a running car. If I disconnect the 60A fuse and the mpi/mfi relay it does not drain the battery.
So I don't know what else to do to solve this. Any help would be appreciated. I almost always resolved everything from reading here but I cannot solve this.
