Hard starts after car is warm

Over the past couple of months my 97 has been starting really hard, and sometimes takes two-three ignition cycles for it to finally catch and run only after its already warmed up. usually happens when i drive for a few minutes, turn the car off and come out and start it up a minute or so later. Anyone have similar problems, any ideas. TIA

Your starter is on the way out. That's what was happening to me and the car is now at the shop.

just search about it theres alot of thread about this, its kinda common. From what i have read there is various things it could be some people say it could be the grounds on your starter and other electrical components and some say it has something to do with your injectors with bad seals or just leaking.(anyone feel free to correct me if im wrong) But like i said just search that should be able to answer your question.

mine would not start on hot days after warmin up intermittently. was a crank position sensor. easy to test and fix, and my ECU had the code. Get a haynes or chilton manual. or if you woudl rather look at a computer, read the ECU code threads and then see if you get anything...
