Change in start up

[slow poke]

There's a change in my cars start up

It's getting slower to crank and when it does start the it sounds sluggish (very low RPM) for a second before idling normally.

No difference when running and driving from what I can tell

Any ideas?

Thanks

Maybe a ground wire getting old or loose,,

Dirty battery terminals, if aftermarket under clamp also get dirty

The ground from battery to radiator support I've had issues with,I upgraded this cable,

Lazy starter.

Air inlet getting clogged .that's air filter and intercooler causing slow to get up to idle

Fuel filter getting clogged

The above are all the “go to” things you do first, if the above check out then we can did a little deeper

What does the battery voltage go to with KOEO and the headlights, blower fan, etc on? That willl be a good indicator of how weak the battery is.

If you need a battery, go to Walmart, as they are less than half of what the parts places charge. ~$100 vs $200+
