It would not "drain" the battery, but it could keep it from getting a 
complete charge. All 69- VWs got ground wires everywhere, 
including to the VR. Make sure that yours is properly connected.

For the -68 cars, the body is the ground, so you have to have a 
good connection there. If the body is rusted out, run a ground wire 
to a part that is still sound.
