how to restart a lazy mac

Text:

my powerbook g4 15"does not restart immediately after shut downs.
it does however restart after waiting 8-10 hours. strangely, if i disconnect the power after logging out, (without shutting off the unit) it restarts immediately. must point out that battery doesnt hold much charge anymore and the mac must be connected to the ps all the time. i wouldn't want to buy a new battery unless i am reasonably sure that it would solve the problem. have already changed to pram battery.
any suggestion ?
thanks and happy new year to all
