Electrical problem
1987 Toyota Supra Two Wheel Drive Automatic

chance to buy an 87supra, near mint, for 700bucks. owner showed me how once car is turned off, battery drains within 10 minutes. also it will not idle, take your foot off the pedal and it's like you shut off the key, immediate shut down. he's a gear head and suspects a short somewhere but has been unable to find one. any ideas?

battery drains within 10 minutes. Battery drain test:

Stalling: Check the idle air control valve, throttle position sensor, airflow meter, and the EGR and PCV valves.
