If it cranks and then battles to start, Check that the starter selonoid cable is not running in the same plastic channel as the crank angle sensor. The high voltage from the selonoid cable induces a high voltage into the low voltage sensor wiring. Separate these two sets of wires. Check also the battery earth cable and the starter amperage draw on the main battery positive cable.
