Problem: 93 GMC Jimmy won't start.

My 93 GMC Jimmy won't start.

Things that I've noticed:

The engine doesn't kick or anything. I do hear the fuel pump though.

The battery is 5-6 years old and when I try to start the car the volt rating on the dashboard hovers around 12. I'm thinking that isn't enough to start the car.

I also live in the Twin Cities Metro region in Minnesota and this past weekend we were hit by really cold weather and I know that the efficiency of battery's weaken as the temperature drops.

When the car didn't start yesterday I waited an hour and tried again. That time it started. So I'm not sure whats up.

BTW I haven't had a chance to jump the Jimmy.

So I think the battery might need to be replaced. Do any of you agree?
