1986 Ford Mustang 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 83 000 miles

I have a parasitic drain somewhere in the electrical system, everywhere I check online says to pull fuses untill it goes away and then i'd have found the problem. Well I pulled them all and it's still 1.4 amps, it's killing the battery in less than 8 hours from a full charge.

It seems to be somewhere in the starter circuits what should I look into next?

I thought Managed to find it, it seemed to be the voltage regulator, got the alternator tested, it tested good, the batter is 3 days old and I just replaced the voltage reg and now it doesnt charge while running. It was more useful before when it charged but drained when not in use. Now I really need help!
