Having trouble with nissan truck cranking.Engine dragging when trying to crank it.It sounds like the battery is dead.New battery,new starter,checked alternator.If you put a set of jumper cables on it still drags but will finally crank. Any ideas I am puzzled.

I would say check if your getting a spark first and if u are check timing if u jumped it and it works then do a volt drop on the cable
