Due to local forest fires, I could not ride my old 1970 CL350 for about three weeks. Yesterday went to start it, battery dead dead dead. Battery just two months old, so odds kinda low that it's the battery. So recharged the battery, attached the positive cable, then put a voltmeter between the ground cable and the battery's negative post. The meter sees 10.3 volts going between the post and cable. Dang. As simple starting places I (1) made sure one of the points were still gapped correctly, and (2) completely disconnected the ignition switch. No joy.
Very strong voltage across the battery terminals... which is not particularly relevant considering the draw.
Anybody know of anything that pulls roughly 10.3 volts sittin' still?
thnx - Jake
