I'm still trying to track down a parasitic current draw which is causing starter problems if the car sits for more than a few days.
It looks like the current draw when the car is parked is around 60 mA. Would that be enough to drain the battery below a level that will turn the starter motor after 2 - 3 days.
I read somewhere that the current draw for a 993 should be less than 20mA but I also just watched a Youtube video where somebody was saying most modern cars regularly draw 60 - 100 mA.
The battery reads about 12.7 V after a run but is down to 12.1 after a few days. The battery is expensive and pretty new - about 1 year old.
I've tried pulling each of the 40 fuses in the main fuse box whilst the meter is connected but the current draw remains at 60mA. Are there other fuses or circuits I need to check if none of these fuses seem to affect the current draw?
