Cranking and Ignition issues...

Ok, so i am attempting to start my 350. It's not high compression or anything, but when i turn the key, it turns over really slow. My battery has 13.4 volts and is rated to 820 CCA. I had it tested at the auto parts store and it tested good.

So basically i have a full battery, and slow cranking. Does that mean my starter is weak?

yup, time for a new starter, but first check your connections on the starter
