    It sounds to me like a dragging starter. How about an amp test to see how much it’s drawing? I use an inductive amp meter that you hold over the positive cable, then crank the starter. Does the starter get hot if you hold the starter button in? You could get a pair of jumper cables and go from the battery directly to the starter… How about the ground cable on the motor? Another idea.. where the copper battery cable enters the connection lug, I’ve seen them corrode and drive you crazy trying to figure it out.
