I know something is on and it kills my battary. If I let the car set for more then two days it's dead. I have a 86 and when I touch the cable to the batt. it arks a big spark. I know there is some way to place a meter between the post and cable to read volts. Then you pull fuses until you see a voltage drop. I'm not sure can anybody tell me the way to look for what is drawing my batt. down.

Is the battery still good? You can have the battery "load' tested at your local auto parts store for free if your unsure. Charge the battery before you take if in for testing or before troubleshooting.
Easy way to go is to use a clamp on DC amp probe.....check the draw reading then start pulling fuses until you find the 'big' draw.
