Re: Battery in crossfire is being drained quickly,car will dies and wont restart
James beat me to it, but CERTAINLY your battery is not being charged. The reason the voltage does DOWN with the car running, is the battery is powering ignition, air pump, etc. with NO help from the Alternator.
For WHATEVER reason, the Alternator is not charging the battery. Your belt isn't missing or mis-routed, is it?
