My battery keeps draining. I replaced the alternator and the battery still drained. Checked with a voltmeter and it was putting out around 10 V. Went to replace it, the parts guy checked it and said I was right, and ordered a replacement. Replacement came in and it was broken. At this point I raised a fuss. Replacement number three:
When I got the replacement today he said he checked 'em both and they were both good. So I think the guy said that to be a dick but if he's right then I still have a problem.
If the battery is new, the alternator works, but the battery keeps draining what could be the problem?

It could be your coil(s), what mods do you have?

Nevermind. The moral of the story is: when you pay someone to fix your car, they don't always take the same time and care like you would.
