I have a slow cranking issue. Its starts good. Acts like battery is low but its checks out good.
Also looking how to disable ignitions so I can crank starter without it actually starting.

Are you looking to make a kill-switch for security purposes?

pull the fuse for the fuel pump or fuel pump control module. start it and let run until it stalls. then you can do a starter draw test. make sure your battery is fully charged. the more discharged the battery is; the higher the amp draw.

That always good to hear. Many a good battery has been replaced when it was the starter.
