I have a 92 Buick Regal. The car continously dies.I changed the battery and still the same thing happens. When you boost it it is fine till a day or so later when it goes dead. I had the new battery tested and the altenator tested. Then I had the fusable link replaced. When that was taken out it was all corroded. The next day it died again. Thats when I had the new batt tested and put it. Im at my witts end with this problem since I just bought the car. Please help. Oh when the alt was tested Napa said that it was fine and pushed the full 105 amps

You may have a voltage leak, disconnect the + of the battery and hook up a amp meter between the cable and the battery, if your pulling amps then there is a leak, there will be a little amperage from the radio clock. But not much.

Well I put the tester on like you guys said. And there was high amps. So we replaced the altenator this time cause it seem to be coming from there and still nothing. The volt meter in the car stabilized but it did the same thing again
