Do you by chance have a 140 amp alt.? I had the same problem with my 91 GT always running out of power if not ran daily. My problem was a diode which keeps power from shooting to the coil with the power and key turned off. If you have an ohm meter search the lines with the car off to see if you can find power in the charging circuit which is constantly draing power.Have you taken off the starter and taken it to advance auto parts to see if the starter is bad?

most modern alternators have the diodes built in ,they can however still be replaced though so check the wires first then take your alt to AZ and have it checked

THANKS,  I HAVE INSTALLED A NEW ALTERNATOR,BATTERY, NEW SPARK PLUGS, CAP, ROTOR, COIL AND A NEW IGNITION MODULE.      The car cranks ok just will not start at all anything i am over looking?   i also bought a code reader and my egr sensor has a low voltage. trying to fix the car myself instead of having it towed to the nearest dealer for costly repairs

maybe a ground wire not hooked up to complete the circuit.

I would check the distributor pick-up coil 1st. They're known to go bad. It's inside the distributor, under the rotor.
