I have been having a "Slow starting" issue with my car. It cranks normally, but takes a lot longer to start than it should. A shop that I had my oil changed at checked the Alternator and it showed it wasn't putting out anything. Then I took the car this morning to an Advance auto parts and had them check the battery/alternator and everything tested fine.
Last night I was out driving around and after one of the slow starting episodes, the lights where dim and the clock wasn't illuminating until I got on the highway. Then everything was fine.
Today the clock kept getting dim/bright while I was driving. I am not getting any check engine lights, battery lights or anything like that.
I had the starter and fuel pump replaced aprx 2 months ago. The engine replaced/rebuilt about 9 months ago.
Another note: sometimes when it is having the "slow start" issue, if I give it some gas, it seems to start better.
Does it sound like the Alternator is going out?
Or does it sound more like a fuel related/sensor related issue?
