slow start
OK so I have a 2001 dodge ram 3500 passenger van engine is a 5.9 v8. last few days it has been cranking real slow. I hear a the clicking from the starter then it starts doing a slow turn over most of the time other times it takes a few key turns.it acts like its getting little to no power at first them stats winding up faster till it starts. I have put in a new alternator had the battery full looked at starter has been looked at. everything has been checked out with them green light on all. please help I cant figure out why its doing this.

You'll need to connect a voltmeter down on the starter battery terminal and to some place on the starter body. Then check the volt reading while cranking and compare it to a volt reading at the battery while cranking. If the reading is lower at the starter you have a wiring issue, if it's the same at the starter you have a bad starter...bench testing be dammed.
