battery or starter issue?

[John]

I took a brief look at it yesterday but with family in town I had little time to slip away for a full diagnosis. But what I did find may very well be the issue. Two things, for one, the battery is 93 months old (it's a 2005). The voltage is fine at 12.5 volts but I suspect with the age, it's load ability is far from fresh. Second, the positive lead on the starter is rusted. So, the plan is replace the old battery and clean up the connections on the starter and see how that goes. It may indeed resolve the issue. Thanks for your input.
