slow starter when hot



ok, need an opinion:
- when car is hot and just has been shut off, the starter cranks ... well, it crawls, as if my
battery was dead.
- if i wait 5 minutes (or one minute with ignition/ac on (rad. fan running)), then try to start it,
it starts.
- trying to narrow to ground/power wire problem or the starter itself.
- i heard when the starters go they have the same symptoms, but i've never had one go like that, and
its been the same way for 3 months, hasnt gotten any worse.
- i got a starter in the garage, should i throw it in?
- also, how in the f*&% hell do i get that "must replace" bushing out???
any help appreciated
