Gonna take my old truck in today but just thought I’d get some opinions here first on the possible issue……It’ll crank just fine for 9-10 times in a row….maybe more…..Then out of the blue you’ll try to crank it and it acts like the battery is dead…..giving it that slow “rrrr…rrrr….rrrr….”…….I’ve been lucky so far and been able to get it to crank and get home but it about left me stranded last night……I thought at first it was just a loose battery cable but they are good and tight now and its still doing it……The battery is brand new……Its not going dead so I don’t think it’s the alternator…….Its never had a starter put on it that I know of and its a 97' with a 160K miles so I guess that could be an option but I’m leaning toward something with the battery cables… I don’t see anything visibly wrong though…..
What say the aldeer mechanics?....Is that indicative of how a starter would act that was going bad?
