Hello. I have 1984 cadillac deville limousine 4, 1L HT4100. I drive this car only about one or two times in week. After every ride I disconnect the battery because after few days when car stay on parking area the battery is unloaded. My question is can I do any general turn off electricity in car like this or do I must disconnect the battery after every ride? Sorry for my english. Thank You.

There are battery switches available and you just install hem in line with positive battery cable tehn when you want to disconnect you just turn the switch.
