The starter battery was very weak today but did still start.
If you ran it dead, it'll take at least 12 hours of driving, or a good long time on a benchtop charger to be fully charged again.

i took the first few measurements at the solenoid and not sure if i'm doing something wrong...
test 1 (cold): both fat and skinny wires at solenoid were at 12.3V. when i tested the skinny it was on the screw that it connects to.
test 2 (engine running): fat at solenoid 13.7V, skinny at solenoid 14.3V
test 3 (engine off): both at 12.6V. measured resistance between fat to starter and fat to house and it was 35ish. i put each lead on the opposite sides of the solenoid... also not sure i did it right.. i did change the setting to resistance
i need to reread dwh's posts again to understand the other tests...
