something running and draining my battery
i have a 1989 ford f150 and somethiing is running or pumping down by the bottom of the transmission. I does it with the key off or on. the only way to stop it is to disconnest the battery cable.whatever it is running it uses a lot of current and drains the battery fast. I did get it to stop a couple of times by starting the truck and shifting through the auto transmission. now it is doing it again and if i connect the plus cable the noise returns,real loud and under truck on drivers side. maybe in torque converter. just checked with my volt meter and current draw is 5.75 amps
