This is really rare ive been in cars since 1996 and i never seen a problem like this ..its a 4bbl 305 automatic from 1982
This are the symptoms :
1 The starter is turning slow ..after the car is hot
2 i changed the battery and it started OK ..then i stopped the car tried to make it run and the starter is slow ...

Your exhaust may be heating your starter, maybe a small hole in the exhuast or if you have headers. That will cause starter problems, either try the starter rap or header rap to decrease temps, also probably wanna new starter, to start from fresh.

You might want to try a starter heat shield, they cost about $20 and are good to have anyway.

Agree with the starter... The no power on accell is gonna be a carb deal with the 2bbl on your 82 V6... Most common problem with that carb and no power on hard accell is too high a float level.. The secondary's actually draw air in through one of the tubes in the main well compartment of the carb... The other being the mixture control solinoid...

Don't ever connect the battery terminals together!
