For Fiero, most are in See my Cave, Battery Leaches
Find faster use DC Amp Clamp and test w/ cutting, pulling fuses, etc.

If you pull fuses and think current < 10a. use standard meter w/ 10-20a range to replace fuses.
Many say 20a but most cheap ones can't safety handle more then maybe 5a. the meter, test leads or both have issues on cheap units.
Quick tool... Blow a small fuse and mod to probe easy to protect fuse contacts.
