robertccach Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I could go out first thing in the morning at a temp of zero and the car will start fine but if I drive around for awhile,turn it off and lets say run in to a store come back out the car will crack real slow to the point of no cracking at all.If I wait alittle while then try it starts normal.Since it will start fine first thing on a cold morning,it cant really be the battery can it?Hate to buy a new battery if I dont have to in case its something else.Its a 95 deville 4.9...thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdgrinci Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Sounds as it may then be the starter. When a starter gets hot it can draw more amps to turn it over due to heat increasing the resistance in the wires (either going to the starter or internal to the starter). So first step, check for tight connections at the starter, second, consider a new starter.
