Tea break - Ok found my error! :) I have wired the oil temp gauge to take power from same feed as clock. I of course thought I was smarter than the gauge wiring diagram and have wired the orange and red wires to the battery feed to the clock. :eek:
But only the orange is supposed to be battery feed - red is supposed to be 12v ign switched.
I suspect I though (not sure how) the clock was 12v ign - which obviously it would not be so maybe I thought (a year ago when doing this) that I would make both 12 v direct.
Anyway clearly need to rewire the ign switched wire and that will solve the problem

With ign switched power to auto oil temp gauge now have current draw of 0.009 vs when started of 0.099-0.102
So now 10% of what had but still have more than just the clock which is 0.002-0.003
So will do some more investigation but must say I am close to putting batt isolator switch in - will do something before new battery as this one is dead - holds about 11v charge. drops to 10.5v when hocked up but not used for a few days/week.
So stuffed I suspect.
