I’ve noticed that lately when starting the cranking seems to be labored as if it might not start. It seems the cranking is slow but it always starts. I’m not sure if it’s a battery issue or a starter issue. It’s a ‘01 4.0 with 256k on it. I e had it since ‘03. The battery was last replaced in ‘09 and the starter is original. Haven’t taken it to see where the problem lie’s yet Any suggestions on probable cause?

Possibilities:
1. Battery
2. Starter
3. Battery cables
4. Ignition switch

voltage drop or starter wear
your starter is kinda annoying to get to so i would verify all the easy things first
