So I know Renix engines typically crank a little slow, but this is something else.
Every morning for the last two weeks my Jeep has had a really really slow crank. Almost as if the battery is weak. But the battery (optima blue top) shows over 12v. I let the Jeep sit for two days, and without starting it I tested the battery. Still showed 12v.
The starter is about 2 years old, I don't really think that's the issue.
After starting and driving, the slow crank issue goes away. But if it sits over night, it's almost like tje battery is draining.... But it's not, like I said it shows over 12v
I'm stumped. Could my optima be bad even if it shows 12v? I haven't tried a different battery yet... Gonna do that next. Any thoughts or ideas?
