My car has starter issues as well. A month or so ago I went through the starter trouble shooting article and determined that my battery was shot. An Optima from Pep Boys did the trick for a while. Recently the hesitation from when the ignition key is turned until starter turns has come back. A few days ago it did not turn over at all. Once home I placed a voltmeter across the battery terminals and cranked the motor over. The voltage was about 11.2 V. This is a little bit low according to the article but much higher than I measured with my old battery. Since I recently went through and checked all the connections I'm thinking that there is some other problem. The bad spots in the starter refered to in the earlier post is interesting, I have never heard of it before.
