Cold weather. Turn your headlights on for about 10-15 secs before startup. Then turn them off. It gives the battery a "boost" if you will. It kinda wakes it up. If it doesnt work, I would suspect a dying battery.
What? Did I read you right? Draining the battery doesn't give any kind of "boost". It just drains the battery.....

Ummm, OK. Whatever you THINK you know. Can you tell us exactly how much drain will be put on a battery if you turn on the lights for 15 seconds? You dispute the fact so you must know something, so please share. Considering it DOES work & people have been doing it, since before you & I were even born. It has been proven to work. What is better on a battery. One large load or a gradual load?

Considering you live in Tampa, i'm not sure if you actually ever experienced COLD weather.
