Most of the time, my '85 K5 Blazer with 6.2L diesel starts just fine. A little slow and rough on cold mornings, but most of the time it is fine. But it seems that the last 3-4 months, if I say for instance drove my truck on Friday for a few errands, and then didn't try to crank it over again until late Sunday or Monday morning, then the battery is dead for some reason. The starter clicks and all, but I have to throw the charger on it for about
15-25 minutes and then she starts. Not sure why this is happening. There is nothing left on that I know of. It does have power windows and locks and is parked on an incline in the driveway. Also has 2 amps for my stereo but they are hooked up with a remote wire so they shouldn't be staying on. But again, if I drive it daily, it always starts fine, this is just when I haven't driven it for a couple of days! So does anyone here have any ideas at all? Would really appreciate it. Thanks much.- posted
