62 Valiant 200 / 170 cuin /6 - Odd smell - then dead battery

ADDED VOLT METER BY USING IGNITION SW POSITION 2 AND GROUND.

Just noticed this^^.

'62 ignition switch cpould be different.
But in general I2 on the ignition switch is connected only with the key in Start.
Any voltage read at the I2 terminal with the engine running is voltage reduced by the current flowing through the ballast resistor.
Here's the back of a replacement switch for '67 as an example

Engine Running voltage should look something like this.
