As for the compressor coming on with key off he also said that if the battery was low when the key is turn off sometime the ecu will still have the compressor demand still active and might indeed start the comp with the key off. I just keep the battery charged and have had no issues since.

This is concerning. Always have a current draw? My dually w/the factory GM TBI ECU + stereo equipment + manual air-ride set-up could sit for a month & will pop off when the key is turned on.

I would like to switch to an automated system on my current build (couldn't afford it while building the dually & don't have the desire to pull it apart just for the automation). But, I don't want to deal w/unnecessary electrical issues because of it.

Why is there always a draw?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
