My diesel was like that,I noticed my battery cable was getting hot!!! I had
good connections and cables after ruling that out I had my starter rebuilt
then all good!! If you can get an amp draw while cranking you'll know after
checking all connections first! Good luck!!

Get yourself about 15 feet of 00 dga. wire and jump the pos battery
terminal to the starter. Crank and verify that the problem is solved.  If
so, then properly install the wire, replacing the original.  Worked for me!!
