Only do this if it is a small current draw. Some ammeters cannot take a  
lot of current, and doing this will run all current through the ammeter.  
(Unless I am misinterpreting John's suggestion.) I like the test light  
suggestion from Tim. -Seth

Make sure you conduct this test properly, otherwise, it  hertz. <G>

Better yet, put a low range ammeter in series with  the battery, yank all 
the fuses and see whatcha got. Stick the fuses in one  by one, until you find 
the sneak.

I would  start by removing fuses one at a time while watching a test light  
 
in series with the battery for major change in brightness. This MAY save  
time  looking , also take tunnel cover off and look at wiring  carefully.
Also check starter solenoid by unplugging the 2 wire harness  while 
watching 
the light.
Good luck
