I have a 1998 2.4 liter Chevy Cavalier when starting it sounds as if the battery is not fully charged. It has a new battery, which I had checked at the parts store when bought. I also pulled the starter off and had it checked. I have checked all the wire connections, all tight and no corrosion. Starter still turns engine over slowly, headlights burn bright. Is it possible for a starter to check good and still be bad? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If it has more than 50,000 miles on the starter I would suspect the starter. Even if it tests good it sounds like the starter. Try putting a new one in, if it doesn’t fix the problem just clean it off and return it. Be careful when you remove the old one cause there may be shims, if those shims are needed but not put back it can make the starter drag a bit too.
