Hey I have a 2005 Ranger four-cylinder. The temperature just dropped here in Tennessee and now my truck is very slow to start, other than replacing the starter where would you suggest that I begin diagnostics on this? This just started when the temperature dropped, if that has any merit there. Thank you for your help

My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
How old is the battery? What is battery voltage with engine off, key off?

If you think it might be electrical in nature, make sure all connections (positive AND negative) are clean and tight.

That does hold merit, I have no idea how old this battery is it is the same one that I bought the car with. I did also have to have it jumped off recently so you're probably right
