Car wont start sometimes
sometimes after a day or so of not starting my car, it wont turn on or takes a really long time to turn on.
the thing is is that when it does turn on it turns over easily, it just takes a long time of holding the key in the start position.
Any ideas?

I had the same problem..I noticed it went away after I switched out my cap (for stereo) and cleaned the battery terminals, as well....also checked out my grounds

battery terminals are clean, the grounds are secure too. I'm not sure about the alternator, but i don't think that has anything to do with just cranking the car? or am i wrong
