Just as a start, pull both battery cables at the battery. Clean both th
cables and battery terminals. If either cable looks corroded, jus
replace it.

Thanks for the suggestions.
It is strange though why would it do it only early morning, and then
once it started, it will go well for a day or two... Well, I will
clean up the terminals and see what happens tomorrow.... I have the
suspicion it's the starter though...

Sometimes, hitting an intermittent starter with a piece of wood on those
mornings when it fails will make it start. If so, probably the starter
and not the battery cables. Cables are a good, easy place to begin the
search though.

Early morning there's more moisture in the air, unless you're in th
middle of some deserts plus the air is colder and denser, so condensatio
can wreak havoc with dodgy connections more easily. Terminals & cable
first, then start eliminating the more expensive possibilities if still n
fix. Cheers
