I have a 940 wagon with the 4 cyl, non-turbo engine. Recently, I did not use the car for about 5 days. when I tried to start it, the battery was completely dead. The battery is only one month old and in good shape. How long (how many days) can the car site before the battery is drain by the clock, radio, etc. (assuming 70 degree temp, good battery, etc)? Or, do I have another problem (a shunt/short)?
