plan was to tackle the timing belt this long weekend but looks like ill be chasing this electrical issue for a good part of tomorrow/saturday
Did you end up replacing the battery cable and did it fix the problem? I'm having the same exact problem...

Probably not going to get a response from the OP. But, I had a similar situation that turned out to be a short in the radio. Decided the location of the cup holder combined with a cassette type ipod adapter that was not inserted is a bad combination after spilling some water from an open cup that hit the cassette and went into the radio. Battery drain started a couple days later. I diagnosed by removing one fuse at a time from non critical electrical components.
