hey, for a while now i have noticed this problem, when i start my car from cold it starts perfectly with no trouble. however, when the car has heated up, the car will have like 3 realy slow cranks before it will start, and its slowly getting worse, today it nearly did not start.
i checked the voltage of my battery when car is off, which was around 12 ish, and when running it was at high 13's, but during the period when i crank it over and the car is hot, voltage dropped down to like 7, 8, 9 volts.
just wondering what the normal voltage drop should be, and what i should look at replacing. the battery is only a year old, and i dont want to replace anything that i dont need to.
thanks for your help.
