Message	The car starts very easily and quickly in the morning and the first hour or so, as the day goes by when I try to start the car the cranking is very slow like the starter doesn't have enough power to rotate the engine. Battery is fairly new and I wouldn't think it was the battery since it starts perfectly every morning. Starter as well, don't see why it would work great in the morning but not a few hours later. Timing is confirmed to be at 15* with a spark plug wire. Car runs great even after it struggles to crank up, after it fires up the idle is good and runs just fine. Fuel pressure is good but don't think it's related since the cranking itself is slow and it's not struggling to fire. Any ideas?
