Ohh,, dang,, my Yamaha 250 4 wheeeeeler is actin strange, killin the battery, & I traced a slight current draw up behind the left side engine cover,, definitely in the charge circuit area..I keep the battery on life support a lot, its so wounded from the times its been run down by the machine that it loses .001 volts about every 3 seconds, even with the - cable off of it,
