Cranking System Symptom Diagnosis
Possible symptoms of starting system trouble would be as follows:
- Starting motor does not run (or runs slowly).
- Starting motor runs but fails to crank engine.

- Tightness of battery terminals (including ground cable connection on engine) and starting motor terminals
