[Amc-list] Engine Cranks Slow When Hot

[Todd Tomason <jayscore@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've noticed something odd with my Spirit.  If the car is thoroughly warmed 
up, and I make a short stop (say 15 minutes), the engine cranks noticeably 
slower when I start it.  As it turns over a few times it speeds up, and it 
starts just fine.  My first thought is some sort of heat issue.  Maybe the 
battery is getting marginal (it's several years old) and the heat is 
affecting it.  Or maybe the heat is affecting the engine itself somehow.  

Any ideas on what to check?

Thanks,

Todd
