Last Friday left my lights on and ran battery very low and it wouldnt start. Jump started it and truck has been fine for 4 days no problem. Until this morning. Went to start it and it hesitated like the battery was weak but started. Drove to work fine. At lunch was hesitant again and I drove it to autozone and had the guy test the battery and alternator. He said both were fine but to clean the connections. I cleaned the connections but am still having the same problem. Normally its the battery or alternator but from what the autozone guy is saying its not. Thoughts?

Might want to try another auto store to verify the first one read it correctly. What exactly is the hesitation like? Is it slow cranks, or a pause in the cranks?

Did he test it off the truck? Does it start better if you charge it?
