I have multiple Optima Red tops in various vehicles. I've had some 
issues with some and they have been replaced. I have one in the Caddy 
that has a sticker on it for 12/05. it has been having trouble starting 
the Caddy on hot starts.Today, it left me stranded. Is a seven year old 
Optima Red top ready for replacement when it can't turn the engine fast 
enough to fire from a hot start? It starts in half a turn when the glow 
plugs are activated!
