Battery is fully charged?
 
Yes brand new an charged. I got it running and warmed it up and it didn't do it as much.
 
In the event that you need to replace the starter, can you replace it by dropping the drive shaft and then removing the heat exchanger? I threw a stud into my exchanger a few years back and replaced it with a new one. It seemed like there was ample room to replace the starter in this way instead of removing the engine or rolling it forward.
