I needed to move, But the engine wouldn't start, it was acting as if the battery was nearly dead. The engine would slowly turn, but not fire up. Well, after about 10 minutes, I tried again, and although it sounded a little weak, it started up on the first try. I suspect I need to change the battery, but I thought I would make sure before I wasted 70 bucks and still had the problem. Thanks.
Yes wise to test it.
Some parts places give a free charging /battery/starting system test that will show the problem.
And do not forget to check battery cables and ends and grounds and alt belt.
