If it keeps going dead you have a "leak" somewhere in your system causing there to be a continous draw on the system. Great way to check - leave car sit with both terminals attached, take reading when you turn it off and take reading....two hours later. Then repeat test with positive terminal disconnected, off course with the car off and in park, and check two hours later.
