Starting Problem

In the last few weeks when I turn the key in the ignition to start the car it stalls and doesn't start, then I hafta try again and it starts but takes a quick second to 'kick on.' What's odd though is that after driving it for a bit and stopping, then starting it again, it starts just fine. Anyone know what could be going on? Spark plugs? Starter? Fuel injectors? Thanks.

something similar happened to me last week. my car stalled out a couple of times randomly on the road and it was idling low. i bought double platinum spark plugs and replaced my old ones... its a complete difference with them in.
