And if it ISN'T the battery? Just set the new one aside (on a block of
wood to keep it off the concrete floor of the garage) until you DO need
it - and you WILL soon need it when dealing with a three year old battery.

If you're starting woes are THAT persnickety (technical term<g>) it will
likely cost you more than the cost of a new juice box to sort it out. A
new battery is often the cheapest diagnostic tool, if not cure, in cases
such as these.
