Ford 901 cranks normally for about two seconds then slows way down. I tried replacing the starter with another that works well, same problem. I took the starter to the shop that rebuilt it four years ago. It checks out. I took the battery to the store where I bought it ten months ago. It checked out excellent. I checked all connections with my digital meter. Virtually no resistance measured anywhere. The only thing that doesn't check good is that while cranking, the voltage drops to 8.5 to 9.0 volts. I ran the tractor for 3-4 hours three weeks ago, then pulled it into the shop for service. Two days later it presented this problem. Any ideas?
