Thank you all for the input.

As seen in the pic, I disconnected the ground cable from the NEG battery post. I hooked up the multimeter black wire to NEG battery post and the multimeter red wire to the black battery cable. At first, the meter read something like 0.285 and after the duration of a few minutes, the meter reading seemed to settle down and hover around 0.210 to 0.215.

So, I guess this indicates an improper ground somewhere? tigerGTO, going by your suggestion, I believe I would start pulling fuses one by one until I see the numbers on the voltmeter drop from 0.215 to 0 or perhaps a lower number?

Geoff: In your post #7, should I disconnect the wires leading the the alt and again do the same test as above?
