When I turn on my engine it start quick. but when I drive for a while then I park the car and 5 minutes later it hard to start. It cranks slow like if the batt was dead. The starter is new and the batt is in good condition.

how close is the starter to your exhaust, could be getting hot

Yea, on my cutty I went through 3 starters. Couldnt figure it out thought it was shorting and a friend had looked at it and told me I had a pinhole in my exhaust manifold and was blowing air into the starter causing it to fuck up.
