Question type: Maintenance & Repair

New alternator June 7, 1997. Latest battery 2 weeks ago. Car is normally
driven short distances every day or two. But  if vehicle sits for +/- 50-60 hrs.
battery is dead. A slow draw somewhere. I did the dark garage disconnect
positive lead and touch but only a small spark. Nothing that would indicate
unusual draw. HELP
