Gary,
We have a similar problem.
It's our third winter now and our third battery.
Although the battery (lead-acid, 30Ah) tests ok and seems to provide enough 
power, replacement did solve the problem each time.
This winter we decided to try a light weight (5,4kg) high current battery 
of the type they often use in race cars.
The problem disappeared instantly and our 914 starts flawlessly again.
Until next winter I am afraid.
Regards,
Henk & Bart
