The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Electrical drain, battery won't maintain charge?

Since the spark goes away when you de-energize that fuse block, the source of the drain is in the block itself or one/more of the circuits from it. Have you removed ALL the fuses from the block (at one time) and checked for a spark? Have you put a volt meter between the battery post and the removed cable?
