Lately I've been cold-started my car in the mornings and when I turn the key to start the car, the cranking is very weak & slow, almost like the battery is dead, it seems to start but won't turn over, takes about 2 -3 tries to get it running on a cold start, I even have to press the gas pedal down a little to get it going and that usually does the trick. SES light is not on after startup. When the car is warmed up I have no problems w/ starting. Could the battery be going bad or is this a problem w/ the fuel system?

thanks guys ... i'll have the whole electrical system (starter and all) checked out when I get a chance ... hopefully the car won't die out on me until then .. i'll keep everyone posted on what's really causing my car to have bad cold starting all of a sudden
good to know my '98 isn't the only one having starting issues
