i have been driven my car(1990 5.0) and worked fine no problems and then i let it sit for 4 days and when i went to start it that morning the battery was dead, so i took it to kragen and had them charge it, threw it back in there, fired right up let it run for a bit, then drove it around the block and back into the garage, then juss went out to start it a couple hrs later and its dead again, but nothings on, lights or anything? i dont know what could be gonig on? anyone know? ever have a problem like this?...

have you checked the alternator? get a volt meter, it should put out 14 volts or so

hook a volt meter to the batt and start pulling fuses until you find your drain
