Getting the Wheeling Fever

I have a parasitic drain in my 1984 22r carbureted 4 runner. I have checked for it with a meter placed between the ground post of the battery and the ground cable. I had 10.95 amps and started pulling fuses. The only change I got from pulling the fuses at the kick panel was when I pulled the dome light fuse. The meter dropped to 10.87. When I pulled the hazarded light fuse in the engine bay the meter drop to 0.14. Should this fuse have this much power going through it so it will work if the truck is not running or is this the problem my battery is drained down over night. What should the amp meter read when everything is grounded properly? I am tired of have to jump off my truck ever time I let it rest for a few days and I do not know anything about electric problems. I have not extra lights or anything on the truck; it even has the original radio. All the lights and everything else works like it did the day I got the truck in 1986. Any help would be very appreciated.
