So, if the machine is restarted or shutdown, it will not boot for 5-6 tries.
When it boots, it is fine. The PRAM battery is definitely bad. The LCS did
leak, but has been repaired. It idles at 63c, so I am thinking that is is
possible that the previous owner who repaired the LCS may of used bad TIM.
Thanks!

And the reason you haven't replaced the battery is?
