Starter 200 1993

Hello Everyone and Happy Holidays.

My 93 244 turns over very slowly. In fact, today, after not being used for a few days, in 15 degree F weather, it would not start. Although I don't think the battery is particularly strong, when I jumped it, it still "turned over" rather slowly. In fact, since I've had the car, it always turned over slowly as compared to a 90 244 that I have. I'd like to attribute this to stupendous compression, but something tells me it might be due to the starter. On the other hand, the battery has not been ruled out either, and strangely, cause strangely, when I put the trickle charge on it, it took a full charge in just a couple of hours. Anyone have any input on this. Thanks much and don't eat too much over the holidays, lest you get stuck under the car on your cardboard creeper.
