Best Answer

A slow crank on start up is typically a sign of a weak or bad battery. Have your battery tested at a local auto parts store and replaced it if it is determined to be bad.

Cold weather can also cause an engine to crank slowly. If the engine consistently starts when cold, even if it cranks slowly, you should be fine, however, you may want to eventually get a battery with more cold cranking amps (CCA).
