Weird starter?
My starter turns over faster when it's less that 60 degrees outside, it doesn't matter if the engine is hot or cold. When it's 70+ usually the speed varies. Batteries and alt. tested fine. I doubt my starter is going bad because when its less than 60 degrees it sounds like a brand new starter. Any ideas AT ALL???

I had a starter once (not on my 6.0) that turned over faster cold versus warm. The starter ended up being bad and any extra heat would "saturate" the windings enough to notice. A new starter cured it.
I also had another one with the same symptoms, the case bolts on the starter loosened up. Just cinched the bolts back down and problem was gone.
