If all that looks good, I'd then pull the starter and suspect worn contacts.

Here's a video that may help you out with the job:

Figured this might be it. Battery is about a year old, and I have done the corrosion thing. Will check grounds and see if something is loose. Don't really want to do the contacts, but I guess that was next on the list. Anyone have any feedback on the kits on ebay? The OEM parts used to be fairly cheap, but now I'm seeing them equal close to what another starter costs.
