I have to find a current draw that kills my batteries in a couple weeks of idle time.
I'd like to install a GPS/Fish Finder in the dash area.
My trailer bearing buddies go "flat" on the rear axle, time to overhaul and replace seals there.
Boat occasionally stalls while idling either in gear or out of it...something to hunt down and fix.
A deep clean and cover after winterizing before storage.
We got to enjoy the boat last Tuesday, had gorgeous weather. But we know time is running out!

You got some work ahead of you. Have you changed the iac yet?

I had to look up IAC to know what you were talking about, but no. Seems a likely suspect!
A quick search on this site turned up some really good resources.
Thanks!
Mike.

In times like these, we all need to sit back, relax, and laugh at the simple things.

Found my "parasitic" drain. Combination of ACR ground lead and Mercathode protection module. Went from 70ma to zero without those two circuits connected. ACR was 10 ma. Merc was 60 ma.
