      If you show 0 amps between battery and cable, then you probably don’t have any parasitic drain. I have seen them read 0 before. What’s the voltage on your battery at 2,000 rpm? 14 volts at idle seems a little high. If you aren’t reading anything on the meter, typically you need to go to a larger figure. Also, you might want to buy an ammeter. You can check parasitic drain without disconnecting any cables.

        Scopes are too expensive for home use.

        I still haven’t done a compression test because 1 its a real pain to get to the back plugs and its been cold and rainy for like 4 days now, Im in PA,

        this is a good example of why it pays off to know how to use a scope and graph your compression waveform; it’s quick and eliminates the need to get to those hard to reach spark plugs. B)

                It is probably fine…i am assuming you have no driveability issues…you probably are looking at history…pending codes wont set a light either….clear the codes and you should be fine

                    Did you check basics starting with compression and then moving to fuel pressure and a cylinder balance test? Also check for vacuum leaks. Start there and let us know what you find.

                            If you are talking about the screws that hold the rotor on, i drill them out if i dont an impact driver handy
