I recently bought a prelude and I am having trouble with something
draining my battery down. I found out the last owner had boosted the
car with the battery leads reversed. I have changed the altinator and
battery but something still drains the battery down. Any suggestions

put an amp meter between the positive cable and positive post of the battery,
the amps should be below 1.

start pulling fuses one by one until the amperage drops, once it does, you
should know what the culprit is.
