My 244 is gonna be the death of me, I really need expert opinion. In the last 6 months, my car has been draining the battery every few weeks, and simultaneously doing this hesitation on acceleration/ rough idle, stalling thing. I replaced the battery, cap and rotor, plugs and wires, fuel filter, both fuel pumps, fuel pump relay a few times. These days it just idles rough/ lower idle rpms, and the freshly charged battery is still draining. Every once in awhile, while driving, the gauges dance all over the dash a bit, then it'll straighten itself out, and the battery won't die. It has a gas engine with power options. I replaced the alternator 3 years ago. Any insight would be hugely appreciated, thanks all!
